Côte d Ivoire May Shelter Cluster Factsheet 2012 Highlights

Côte d’Ivoire May Shelter Cluster Factsheet 2012 Highlights 1. The rainy season of June and July will slow down activities: curing of bricks will be more complicated and remote villages may not be accessible. 2. The Shelter Cluster needs to better understand the support that the government will provide to affected households to rebuild or repair their houses. 3. Only 3 Shelter Cluster partners are targeting the repair of houses in urban areas. More actors are needed to cover the needs. 4. The funding of identified needs remains very low at 14%. Additional 4 million USD are needed to cover all the needs. National response Cluster strategy and goal It is not only homes that need to be repaired or rebuilt, but also the community relations themselves. For this reason, the key approach of the cluster partner’s strategy is to support the communities to rebuild their homes through a community centered approach looking to reinforce existing adaptation mechanisms. Context More than 12 months since the worst of the post electoral violence, the shelter situation has radically changed since 2011. Many communities have selfrecovered, rebuilding their homes through their own initiatives. Approximately 75% of displaced people have returned home and more continue to return with assistance. However, even with this improved situation, many households still face challenges. They identify a lack of security and means to rebuild or repair their damaged or destroyed homes as the main challenges to return. % of affected population by settlement type: 75% non-displaced, 10% host families, 10% self-settled camps, 5% collective centres, 0% planned camps, 0% self settled % of affected population by shelter solution: 85% house (60% mud house, 25% concrete house), 15 % tent, 10% shed, 5% collective centres, 0% improved shelter, 0 % no shelter Government response Until now, there have been no plans by the government to provide durable long-term shelter solutions. However, at the beginning of the crisis, government authorities did distribute NFIs. Community response The rate of self-recovery is at 55%. Some regions have a high rate of voluntary reconstruction while other regions have a lower rate due to continued security problems. Most concrete homes are still damaged and abandoned. Other actors ICRC is working in housing reconstruction.
