Highlights

The Gaza SMART Survey 2026 provides a population-based assessment of the nutritional status of children aged 0–59 months and women aged 15–49 years living within accessible areas of the Gaza Strip in June 2026. The survey assessed important factors related to child and maternal nutrition, including childhood illness, infant and young child feeding practices, measles vaccination, vitamin A supplementation, deworming and care-seeking behavior. 

The SMART survey is a standardized methodology for measuring nutritional status, providing humanitarian agencies with reliable data to guide the response. The findings are specific to the survey period and do not provide information about nutritional conditions before or after the survey period, nor do they serve as a nationally representative statistic for international comparison.
