. Recommendations: – Shelter assistance in Ramechhap appears to have been largely sporadic and seemingly uncoordinated particularly in the northern and eastern edges of the district. More shelter assistance is clearly needed, particular in the forms of roofing and training. – A number of seemingly well made stone houses appear to have performed remarkably well and would warrant further investigation so as to provide better guidance to reconstruction
