SECTION ONE

Percentage of households who have lost productive assets since last year

Definition/RATION/ALE - what does it measure? (max 2 lines)

Understanding the number of productive assets or change in ownership of productive assets is key to understanding HHs ability to generate income and a HH’s resilience to shocks.

Methodology for collection – How to collect information for indicator (max 4 lines).

• • Pilot among your target group an appropriate translation of "productive assets", such as "all the things that help you to earn money or get food". Also, define a set list of productive assets prior to data collection

• • Collect the following data by conducting individual interviews with a representative sample.
• • Questions regarding productive assets typically fall under shelter/NFI modules.

Methodology for analysis – How to analyse (Max 4 lines). Visual demonstrations for thresholds. How to interpret: Urban v. rural, gender

• • Calculate the indicator's value by dividing the number of respondents (households) who reported to have lost a productive asset in the previous year by the total number of interviewed respondents and multiplying the result by 100.
• • In locations with high levels of displacement, disaggregating by household status is key.
• • Important to observe differences between rural and urban HHs.

Notes on indicator –
What does the indicator not tell us.
How long is it reliable for?

• • The indicator uses a blanket term for productive assets and does not distinguish between an asset’s added value to a household.
• • Doesn’t provide information on how the asset was lost, i.e. during displacement, looted, sold for money
• • Reliable for 3 months

When to use it/when not to use it:

• Best to use between seasons and if contextualized correctly can provide insight during key productive times of the year, such as planting season.
