The Cyclone Giri – Emergency Response Project for shelter reconstruction was implemented by CARE Myanmar in partnership with Swanyee Development Foundation in 15 villages of the worst affected township of Myebon. Between 6th December 2010 and 30th April 2011, the project was able to provide material and training support for 500 families for partial reconstruction and 100 families for total reconstruction of their damaged houses. At the end of the reconstruction process, the project conducted an assessment to assess the effectiveness and quality of processes used in the project and to identify lessons for future shelter projects. The assessment was carried out in 12 of the 15 villages where the project was implemented and covered 48.5% of beneficiaries. The assessment also included the views of key informants’ i.e the members of the Village Development Councils (VDCs). A team of 10 enumerators and two field supervisors collected the assessment data by means of interviews using structured and semi-structured questionnaires. The data analysis was subsequently carried out by CARE’s M&E team.
