As a result of the floods, over 10 million people were left at risk of contracting water or vector borne diseaseand more than 100,000 houses were reportedly damaged or destroyed across Sudan.

The proposed action is informed by multi-sector needs assessments in the target intervention areas which have clearly demonstrated that humanitarian needs continue to remain after flooding, and require a dedicated response. Overall purpose of the role: The Shelter /DRR Assistant will work jointly with Shelter Officer and support him in the rehabilitation of the affected shelters in flooding areas, recovery of the business affected in the targeted communities, including needs assessment activities, technical shelter surveys to categorize the shelters based on their current structural conditions as well as Cash for Work activities and trainings of members of communities as part of DRR activities are the main objectives of the role |
