Description

Shelter Cluster Ukraine Emergency Shelter Kit (ESK) comprises a selection of materials designed to promptly address war-related building damages. It encompasses a series of items that have demonstrated maximum utility, ease of storage, distribution, and installation based on experience and contextual insights. The primary objective of the Emergency Shelter Kit (ESK) is to offer immediate protection during emergencies by shielding occupants from potentially hazardous environmental elements and preventing further deterioration of dwellings. Note that ESKs are not designed for long-term protection or extensive repair of severe structural damage. Long-term repairs
necessitate comprehensive assessments, additional resources, and specialized interventions that exceed the scope of an Emergency Shelter Kit.
