By Oct 10 2011 to December 2014 as the water receded people settled back in their damaged villages.
HAPE provided roof kits with the support of OPP-RTI. HAPE Provided Support for
shelter i.e roofing components for a room of 14’x15’/house (costing upto Rs. 14,000/) and
rubble removal kits (for use by 410 houses costing upto Rs. 4,500/) was initiated.
Support has also been extended to the areas damaged in the floods of Aug’11. Support has
been planned to be extended to upto 600 houses. People were completed mud walls/pillars
and HAPE provided 480 roof kits in 16 villages in both UCs. The roofing components for House were 2 girders, 1216 bamboo/wooden battens, reed matting, plastic sheeting
and rope. In most cases women have completed the mud walls/pillars and plaster with men fixing
the roofing components. In Both UCs two types of roofs have been supported as per
the tradition of the areas
1) the slope roof ,needing 1 girder (16’17’) and 1820 bamboos
(20’ each) and
2) the flat roof, needing 2 girders (16’17’) and 1216 bamboos (16’20’).
Some cases houses have been able to retrieve girders or bamboos from the rubble of their
houses, so have voluntarily taken only the needed roofing components. Therefore more
houses have been supported with roofing over a room/house. Effort has been made to
support maximum number of houses. HAPE have organized village committees in each
village for joint survey, selection and management of work.
