CONTEXT Concern Worldwide along with International Organization for Migration, UNHCR and Shelter Cluster has undertaken a joint assessment of the situation of shelters in the severely affected communities due to landslides and floods. This assessment report was part of the shelter cluster’s presentation to the Honorable Deputy Minister for Rehabilitation and Rural Development on 6th April 2014. The meeting outcomes was that, it recognizes about more than 8,000 families who are severely affected by floods and landslides and their houses are completely destroyed (considered as Category A) and there is about more than 7,000 families need shelter support before this winter. The existing approach of the MRRD and the Shelter cluster envisaged in its Shelter Strategy have limitations includes, availability of funding, very little time and huge demand for shelters. To meet this huge demand, there is need for exploring other shelter options for these communities. The study report of Concern which has come out with different shelter options can be further explored with the affected communities across the flood affected areas by Shelter Cluster partners and IOM to get exact case load for different shelter options.
