After more than 750,000 houses either damaged or destroyed during the recent earthquake in April 2015, the Government of Nepal appealed the international community to support country’s emergency shelter needs. These needs were particularly vital on the onset of the monsoon season, in order to avoid protracted risks, particularly for the most vulnerable people including women and children.In response, the Government of Japan has decided to support UN-Habitat’s humanitarian response for shelter provisions prior and during the monsoon. The support is being mobilized across 10 priority neighbourhoods in five most affected districts viz. Sindhupalchowk, Dolakha, Kathmandu, Lalitpur and Bhaktapur.
