Building Back Better in Earthquake Response

The successes in building resilience of the earthquake-affected community was possible  due to the high level of engagement and active leadership of the community  and by adopting  the BBB approach. The approach focused on  mainstreaming Disaster  Risk  Resilience in  each  of  its  intervention related  to shelter, livelihood,  water  and  sanitation, and  further  built  the local capacities by organizing and equipping the community  with disaster preparedness skills.
