Input: 
  • The 6 year post-earthquake reconstruction programme started in May 2016 at the completion of DFID's humanitarian operations in country.
  • The project in its initial year has provided an array of support to meet immediate priorities of both the GoN's National Reconstruction Authority and vulnerable populations residing in some of the most affected earthquake areas. For example DFID is supporting the Housing Recovery and Reconstruction Platform (HRRP) for coordination and information management of the housing reconstruction sector; activated water and trail related programming in Gorkha, Rasuwa, Dhading and Nuwakot (DFID's focal districts); providing technical assistance to the NRA; supporting a programme on durable solutions for those displaced by the earthquake; contributed resources to the GoN's housing reconstruction cash grant programme for families whose houses have been completely or majorly damaged; enrolling of individuals to the GoN's housing grant programme in 11 most affected districts; geo-hazard assessments of over 500 vulnerable sites; housing damage survey in additional 17 moderately affected districts amongst others.
  • DFID Reconstruction Prgramme team is based in Kathmandu (headead by the Reconstruction Team Leader, Senior Reconstruction Advisor, Programme Manager and a Programme Officer); DFID also has Field Officers based in Gorkha,Dhading, Rasuwa and Nuwakot who are the main district focal points and lead on monitoring activities of DFID's work in the districts

Outputs: 

Three overarching outputs of the programme include:

  • Build back, better infrastructure and services: This will operate in 4 intervention districts (Dhading, Nawakot, Ghorka, Rasuwa) and aim to build back better public infrastructure and services, targeting the poorest and most vulnerable, including women and girls. Outputs include, but not limited to,  Technical Assistance to support the operationalization of the Post Disaster Recovery Framework in the focal districts, financing of priority public and community infrastructure amongst others.
  • Leave No-One Behind: Through our programming we will put the poorest and most vulnerable at the centre of the programme. The reconstruction process opens up an opportunity to support the poorest people’s access to basic needs, test what works and aim to improve the GoN social protection systems to flex and respond to emergencies or specific vulnerabilities.  Outputs include cash for work programming targeting the most vulnerable, establishing a challenge fund that supports activities/projects targeting the most poor and ensuring no one is left behind in the reconstruction efforts.
  • Develop and deepen credible relationships via capacity building and coordination support: We know from experience that meaningful and genuine policy dialogue requires deep engagement and solid relationships. DFID aims to invest time and resources at both the local and central levels (e.g. National Reconstruction Authority) to build a platform to share insights on what works (and doesn’t) to support the GoN deliver the best outcomes from the reconstruction investments/efforts. Outputs include supporting key coordination mechanisms amongst others.

Outcome:

Linked to the outputs the short to medium term outcomes include:

  • Build back, better infrastructure and services: operationalizing of the Post Disaster Recovery Framework in the four focal districts, priority public and community infrastructure built back better nand increased investment by private sector in high potential area/sectors.
  • Leave No-One Behind: Identifying the most vulnerable individuals and ensuring no one is left behind in the on-going reconstruction efforts
  • Develop and deepen credible relationships via capacity building and coordination support: ensure effective engagement and co-coordination of reconstruction activities and provide technical assistance on needs basis; we are keen to ensure continuous engagement with beneficiaries to learn what works (and doesn’t) and ensure an adaptive programming approach.

Impact: 

Through the £83 million post-earthquake reconstruction programme we aim to ensure all reconstruction activities contribute towards the vision of building back better, that the poorest and most vulnerable are not left behind in on-going reconstruction efforts, that there is a transformative impact for women and girls, and that the reconstruction effort leads to long-term positive change.
