Development Workshop has identified the need for a more systematic collection, in a number of Provinces, of information from a variety of sources that will permit a deeper understanding of the dynamics in those Provinces and subsequently the monitoring of changes there. DW intends to pilot this approach in Zaire Province, in the north of Angola. Zaire Province is one of the Provinces that has been included in the assessment carried out during 2004, and is an area for which there the most serious lack of information. The World Food Programme’s Vulnerability Assessments, for example, do not cover the Province and the Provincial Profile for Zaire lacks information available for other Provinces. DW therefore intends to test an approach to information gathering, analysis, archiving and dissemination in Zaire Province that might be used subsequently in other Provinces and that supports this approach.
