I am thankful to Hajime Matsunaga-Operations Manager of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and Dr. Krishna Devkota-Head of Flood Recovery Operation of the Nepal Red Cross Society (NRCS) for their strategic inputs and guidance to complete the study. I am grateful to Rose Munene-PMER Delegate and Prajjwal Acharya-Senior Project Officer of IFRC and Binita Dhungel-Programme Officer and Pallavi Singh - PMER Officer, Disaster Management Department of NRCS for their support from designing to execution by providing valuable feedback and suggestions to make this study possible. Their comments and suggestions really remained helpful and also provided us insights. The study would not have been accomplished without the cooperation of the national, district, municipality, rural municipality, and ward level NRCS representatives and volunteers from Bardiya, Mahottari, Rautahat, Saptari, Siraha, Sunsari and Udayapur districts, and the government as well as non-government stakeholders. I express my sincere thanks to all of them for their cooperation. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to each and every member of the study and field teams who made contributions to make the study successful. Finally, yet importantly, I owe a very big thanks to all the respondents, without whom this study would not have been completed, for sparing their valuable time to share their hopes and dreams without any hesitation which has really added value in the study.
