In September, community perception surveys highlight an over all improvement of how communities feel about the earthquake response. In particular, September saw an improvement in how communities feel about:
- Information needs being met
- Over all progress in the response
- Satisfaction with government and NGOs in the response
While these improvements are positive, community responses still show the need for humanitarian agencies to strengthen its outreach and dialogue with communities. Feedback collected from 18 agencies in the field also highlight the issue of beneficiary selection and aid distribution as a continued challenge. Issues from access to eligibility continue to be raised by communities. Again, this demonstrates the need for clear outreach and dialogue approaches with communities to ensure they have the information they need. Shelter related issues remain the biggest concern for communities. Community feedback also raise concerns and questions related to reconstruction support, building materials, guidelines for build back better, etc. As relief transitions to response and reconstruction, it is critical for humanitarian agencies to communicate and listen to communities in order to support their efforts in rebuilding.
