Greetings! As informed you earlier, I took a planned pre-project implementation visit to Self-help Repair and Maintenance Shelter Initiative from 24 November to 26 November. On early morning (7:00 am) of 25 November, together with my school friend Uttam KC and Ujjwal, a Sai Youth Coordinator from Narayan Ghat who had volunteered to help me, we departed. After some two and half hour of drive from the base in Nawalpur, where I had put myself, to Bhandara, it took us some another three and half hour to drive a distance of 28 km to meeting site to Ramirang Danda where all the heads / representatives of beneficiary families were gathered for meeting.
This interim report outlines the initiation of the FIPMO Self-help Shelter Repair and Maintenance Project for Chepang families, one of Nepal’s most marginalized communities. The field mission (24–28 December 2020) focused on distributing construction materials and winterization support. Despite logistical challenges due to difficult road conditions, all materials—including corrugated sheets, nails, tools, and blankets—were successfully delivered and acknowledged by beneficiaries in Kali Chaur, Ramirang Danda.The project’s first phase has been initiated, with beneficiaries committed to completing house repairs within the stipulated timeframe. While planned support from external agencies such as WFP, WaterAid, and UNHCR was not secured, procurement efficiencies resulted in significant budget savings. The remaining funds (Rs. 308,192) are proposed for use in the second phase of the project, subject to donor approval.
