West Nepal Earthquake Response Project 2023-2024 | Infographic
In response to the devasting earthquakes in 2023 that rattled Bajhang and Jajarkot districts of West Nepal, World Vision International Nepal implemented West Nepal Earthquake Response Project catering to the needs of the affected and displaced families.
A total of 26,333 people affected by the earthquake in Bajhang, Jajarkot and Rukum-West have been supported with various food and non-food items along with psychosocial counseling, construction of transitional shelter, water point and toilet support. With the winter at its peak, 1300 winterization kits were supported to the affected families who were living in make-shift tents to protect them from cold-related ailments.
Children who were forced to study in open spaces due to damaged schools and classrooms were supported with 48 school kits and establishment of 131 Temporary Learning Centres (TLC) to resume their studies in a safe environment.
Likewise, a total of 1,320 pregnant and lactating women and 2,314 children below the age of five were supported with super flour to ensure food security amidst the disaster. Combining the nutritious blend of soybean, corn and wheat, super flour provided the affected children and pregnant, lactating women with essential nutrients for their optimal nutrition.
The earthquake response project was implemented with the support of WV US, WV Taiwan, WV Australia, WV Hong Kong, WV Japan, WV Singapore, WV Canada, Microsoft, Start Fund Nepal in partnership with Dalit Help Society (DHS) Bajhang, Progressive Youth Society (PYS) Bajhang, Panchtara Yuwa Samrakshak Manch (PTYSM) and Nepal Technical Assistance Group (NTAG).

WASH in Fragile Contexts Project Summary
A fragile context is a geographic area where political and social pressures make people vulnerable to conflict and fracture institutions that should protect them. It is often characterised by violence and instability that impact social, political, and economic life. Additionally, fragile contexts face environmental challenges and climate change such as recurring natural disasters, flooding, or drought.
This project aims to document how to deliver high-quality WASH services in fragile contexts and to assess short-term and longer-term effects of high levels of coverage of these WASH services on fragility, vulnerability, and resilience. These projects are being implemented in Bangladesh, Burundi, and Mozambique, each facing a unique combination of fragility ranging from remote cyclone-prone hilly regions in Bangladesh, to extremely low-income drought-and-flood affected districts in Mozambique. This diversity of location allows World Vision to better document and demonstrate the impact of focused programming within the project itself, as well as translate these learnings to improve WASH implementation in other fragile contexts for both World Vision and the broader sector.
