The document discusses plans to revitalize the traditional Nepalese town of Bungamati after it was damaged in the 2015 earthquake. It provides context that over 50 traditional towns were damaged, with Bungamati losing over 65% of its houses. The strategy for Bungamati involves a community-driven and participatory approach to rebuild in a comprehensive, integrated way that addresses physical, social, and economic needs.

The goal is to not just rebuild houses but whole societies and local economies, including supporting the town's handicraft industry. Lessons so far indicate the need for long-term investments
