This report contains analysis from a second round of raw data collected from the field, together with the Ministry of Labour and Social Welfare and other partners. The purpose of the analysis is to assisti the planning interventions in Attapeu Province. IOM will continue to support the Ministry of Social Welfare on additional data gathering.
