Tool Partners Collaboration In general, there were few difficulties using the While there is a high number of participating tool. However, challenges emerged especially organizations in this mapping, there were some regarding the inconsistency of the number and challenges in contacting and collecting data from type of MHPSS workers enrolled in each activity. international organizations. Several organizations provided a total number of MHPSS workers in their team instead of specifying Due to the challenging context in Libya, the them by activities. Also, there were inconsistencies majority of INGOs and UN agencies are based in regarding the terminology used for psychosocial Tunisia, working remotely. Not all focal points were worker, psychosocial counsellor, psychologists, able to participate in Health and Protection Cluster a point already raised in previous assessments meetings where the MHPSS 4Ws mapping was exercises. announced.

Local organizations had difficulties out of the 12 identified international agencies to report the start and end date of their activities. participated in the exercise to date. The lack of input in this regard precluded a deeper analysis of implementation status and timing.
3.4. Recommendations
This mapping is a relatively comprehensive provide further, more detailed information overview of services currently available in Libya regarding MHPSS needs, gaps in services and should be updated every year. For more provision, the target population and vulnerabilities. detailed information on how to do this on an This exercise should also include a capacity ongoing basis, refer to the online 4Ws tool at and needs assessment of organizations and MHPSS.net. implementing staff.
This mapping does not provide information Well-coordinated programs to address identified on the quality of these services, the number of gaps and needs must follow such an exercise. interventions, the number of beneficiaries served or key needs of the affected population. Therefore, This report also calls for efforts to strengthen and this mapping exercise would be complemented better link the existing fragmented coordination by development of a robust MHPSS Needs and mechanisms, to enhance technical guidance, Resources Assessment exercise.
