Abstract

More than 5 years after the 2015 Gorkha’s earthquakes in Nepal, there is still a huge need for addressing the needs of the affected population in the housing and building sectors, which was severely impacted by the events. Most of the activities implemented so far within the Nepalese Housing Reconstruction Programme focused on complete reconstruction, and the largest proportion of HHs enrolled for reconstruction grant. Criteria of eligibility for reconstruction grant have strongly oriented the building systems adopted by the population. Cost efficiency and affordability of current housing reconstruction proposals are very problematic. In most of the cases, the reconstructed houses are smaller than the former ones and do not meet the needs of people in term of spatial usage, needs and practices
