    Abstract

    The Liberia Results Monitoring Surveys (RMS) conducted from December 2023 to January 2024 by UNHCR aimed to assess key impact and outcome indicators among refugees and asylum seekers (RAS) in Liberia. The RMS monitors areas such as education, healthcare, livelihoods, protection, shelter, and water and sanitation, contributing to UNHCR’s multi-year strategy reporting. The sample was drawn from UNHCR’s registration database (ProGresv4) using stratified random sampling, targeting 251 individuals across three counties (Montserrado, Maryland, and Grand Gedeh) with a final sample of 244 individuals and a response rate of 97%. Data collection methods included Computer-Assisted Personal Interviews (CAPI) and Telephone Interviews (CATI). The survey's household and individual data are statistically representative of the surveyed population.
