Background
• Central Asia is located in the heart of Eurasia and includes the five
post-Soviet republics of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan,
Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan
• The region is very vulnerable to natural disasters such as earthquakes,
snow, rock and mud avalanches, floods, heavy rain, storms, cold and
heat waves and droughts
• In recent years, the intensity and range of disasters have increased
dramatically
• Climate change is fostering this development

4.
Objectives
• Prepare & activate early actions
• Test and refine a pilot
• Provide affordable housing
• To make an adequate plan for the capacity building of the implementing
project
• Understand risk scenarios and carry out the forecasting
• Involve all of the stakeholders in the capacity building and select the
beneficiaries (per stakeholder impact assessment)
• Train the volunteers, local leaders, children and intermediaries
• Conduct field studies and evaluation

Methodology
Effective practices
applicable to the learning
process:
• Social mobilization
• Pre-construction trainings
• Field based activities
• Reflection activities
• Rescue operations
• Planning / decision rules
• Vulnerability mapping
• Ownership approach
For construction process:
• Conduct a System of Boundaries within the
regional context
• Make a market research for the materials
selection and the process management
• Measure the average of input and output ratio
within the system
• Identify potential problems (efficiency and
effectiveness concerns)
• Conduct the average pollution and the total
environmental impact from human activities
• Identify risks to Climate and Geophysical
Disasters (social-infrastructural vulnerability)

10.
The sustainable housing
• Comprehensive land use plan
• Effective Information Dissemination
• Effective distribution of help
• Energy
• Waste management
• Recovery capacity (specify and reuse the materials, ending disposal)

11.
Timeline

stakeholders
• The preparation of the concept and the
program of the project
