The Camp Management Toolkit provides comprehensive guidance and practical support for camp responses to displacement, with the overall aim to improve living conditions during displacement as well as to work towards durable solutions and planning for the closure of camps. It hopes to contribute to more effective and efficient humanitarian protection and assistance, including by national authorities, national and international humanitarian actors, as well as IDPs and refugees involved in camp management.
Profiling is considered as one of the fundamental tools for effective camp management and coordination, by providing the basis for planning programme, providing assistance and ensuring protection in the camp. The toolkit also refers to the camp profiling rounds implemented in Kachin State, Myanmar between 2013 and 2015, which “provided both the IDP populations and emergency response providers with information on services, needs, population figures and priorities”.
