Global Cluster Support
In March and April 2023, Premise conducted a pilot collection of standardized humanitarian data for five of the UN clusters—WASH, Health, Nutrition, Food Security and Education—in seven countries: Afghanistan, Colombia, Egypt, Indonesia, Nigeria, Romania, and Turkey. The following dashboard presents an overview of the results.
Premise’s Global Cluster Support data, collected on a quarterly recurring basis, can serve not only as baseline data after an emergency but also as crucial follow-up data to inform humanitarian interventions during and after. The data can aid in steps one, two, four, and five of the Humanitarian Program Cycle.

- Nigeria 77%
- Egypt 78%
- Afghanistan 82%

Running water was reported as:
- Low in Afghanistan, available in only 25% of homes
- High in Turkey, available in 80% of homes
Two countries reported below the average levels of households with running water of 59%:
- Afghanistan 25%
- Nigeria 35%

According to UNICEF, the global average primary school attendance is 87%, putting Afghanistan well below with only 56% attendance.
Respondents also reported lower than global average attendance in Egypt, Indonesia, and Nigeria.

UNICEF estimates that 88% of the world’s population used iodized salt. The Iodine Global Network estimates that people in Colombia, Egypt and Romania have adequate amounts of iodine.
Our results suggest that the population is unaware there is iodine in their salt and thus probably poorly informed on micro-nutrients.

Methodology
Premise’s Methodology team designed the Global Cluster Support survey to gather the opinions of 500 people in each country per recurrence. In each country, our methodologists used Premise’s technology to calculate and designate quotas on the basis of age and gender to ensure that perspectives from across society are represented in the data.
The first round of data collection began February 17th and ran until February 27th, during which Premise collected the opinions of 3,242 residents across the seven countries (n=503 in Nigeria; n=500 in Indonesia, n=499 in Turkey, n=429 in Afghanistan, n=411 in Romania, n=400 in Egypt, and n=500 in Colombia). The second round of collection began March 9th and ran until March 19th, during which Premise collected the opinions of a further 3,157 residents from across the seven countries (n=494 in Nigeria; n=499 in Indonesia, n=498 in Turkey, n=408 in Afghanistan, n=371 in Romania, n=392 in Egypt, and n=495 in Colombia)
Global Expansion & Partnership Opportunities
Premise plans to continue Global Cluster Support data collection on a quarterly recurring basis and expand to several other low- and middle-income countries based on customer needs.
We recognize the expertise of those working in the clusters on the ground and would greatly appreciate feedback on the subjects covered in order to refine our tool and make it more fit for purpose. If you are interested in partnering with Premise to provide feedback and improve the tool, please reach out.
