Question

What are the measures to be taken to provide rehabilitation to the victims of cyclone

Answer 1

Answer:

The reconstruction of shelter and community infrastructure, in fact, forms an important entry point for the rehabilitation process.

A reconstruction program is the first step towards restoring and upgrading local habitat. It introduces improved systems of building, sets up basic building element supply, builds up the skills and management capacity of families, local agencies and village artisans in a restricted area and sets up local information and knowledge systems. All these to enable "better building".

A holistic view of "Habitat" that links the process of housing with the capacity to make and exercise informed choices w.r.t. building construction, habitat improvement and economic betterment is the larger goal.

Re-establishing people’s lives through rehabilitation efforts involves:

• Moving up the ladder from house to habitat to livelihood

•  Local awareness creation including training for all so that people gain control over the housing process.

• Capacity Building and linking to enterprises-Livelihood support

• Devising livelihood interventions in the farm and non-farm sectors based on new economic opportunities to create economic surpluses

• Creating a basis for community access to institutional housing finance.
