Preparing to Respond in case of Monsoon Floods, Landslides and Cyclone: Ongoing Assessments
Since February 2018, Food Security Sector Coordination Team has made several field visits to refugees camps and settlements areas to conduct assessments and develop the Sector's Plan and inform Partners anticipated challenges in distribution of food assistance and the impact on livelihoods of affected host communities. The FSS Team visited community kitchens, emergency hot meals' wet kitchens, and has convened strategic planning meetings with FSS Partners only involved in General Food Distribution, Hot Meals Preparations, and Partners who frequently distribute High Energy Biscuits and Fresh Food items. The Preparedness and Response Plan of the Food Security Sector also looks into aspects of the porter system, Gender Protection issues, and pre-positioning of GFD and HEBs close to refugee camps, particularly areas prone to floods and landslides.
