Sector Objectives
1
Provide emergency shelter and NFIs for people whose houses have been fully destroyed or partially damaged to address immediate shelter needs: • Shelter: distribution of materials such as tarpaulins, basic tools and fixing kits. • NFI: Distribution of hygiene kits, blankets, jerrycans and kitchen sets from pre-positioned supplies
2
Provide engineering support across affected communes through structural assessments and support for the rehabilitation of key infrastructure such as evacuation shelters and hospitals.
3
Provide coordination for technical and strategic guidance based on the expertise of national and international shelter partners. To prepare the transition to the reconstruction phase, partners will rely on lessons learned after the 2010 earthquake and 2016’s Hurricane Matthew, as well as immediate assessments already available, such as the Inter-ministerial Territorial Planning Committee (CIAT).
