1. Building Back Better Rural Housing Reconstruction Training strategy

3. Goal Houses rebuilt using earthquake resistant techniques EQ resistant building techniques need to be transmitted to builders Earthquake resistant Need to introduce EQ resistant elements in traditional building techniques using common materials Use of familiar methods and easy accessible materials Owners need to understand EQ resistant techniques Owner driven Reconstruction principles in relation to training

4. Main challenges Responses Avoiding gaps and overlaps Coordination structure from Union Council, to Tehsil, to District, to Province Coordinator positions at District and Provincial levels 400,000 houses to be rebuilt over a large territory with difficult geography Decentralized system based on provincial and districts authorities Use of partner organisations Community based approach

5. Main challengesResponses Time shortage rebuilding rush in March to June rebuilding slow in monsoons and winter Training of Trainers started beginning of March Initial training focusing on basic techniques More sophisticated training during monsoon season Construction styles vary across affected area Training emphasize EQ resistant principles which must be adapted to local contexts Need for an immediate/interim training plan

6. Target groupsType of training Masons, artisans, self- builders, unskilled labor Enhance skill through Hands on technical training Detailed skill specific training Owners with specific modules for women EQ resistant check list Local Councilors, Elders, Imams, School Headmasters, etc. Government policies and procedures EQ awareness raising Community Based Organisations Awareness, policies, compliance, assistance to vulnerable groups, etc. New workforce Training from scratch Hands on technical training Detailed skill specific training
