IDPs share NFIs outside of their traditional shelter in Magui Liwa Lake Region Chad @R. Wynveen December 2018

Highlights

  • In November, Shelter/NFI/CCCM Cluster partners finalized the Humanitarian Response Plan Process. Following the review of the Cluster’s Vetting Committee on the 19th of November, three projects targeting the Shelter and CCCM needs of IDPs in the Lake Region and one project targeting the shelter needs of returnees in the South were approved.
  • With the approval of a new Cluster Strategy in 2018, Cluster partners undertook the Cluster Coordination Performance Monitoring. The exercise evaluates how both partners and coordination team have done in implementing the strategy and the Cluster’s core functions. Partners at national and subnational level reviewed their perspective on how the cluster was performing and provided recommendations on how the Cluster can improve its performance. The Cluster will focus on how it can implement these recommendations in 2019.
  • On the 5th of December, the Shelter Cluster Team together with the Chadian Red Cross conducted a visit to Magui in order to discuss shelter and settlement solutions. IDPs requested additional technical assistance in order to improve their building practices and to get access to materials that would help the durability of their structures.
  • Subnational Cluster partners developed a strategy for the distribution of NFIs in Kaiga Kindjiria. Partners met on the 6th of December in Bagasola in order to review content of NFI kits and to plan the distribution, verification of beneficiaries, and monitoring plan.
