After the floods of January 2013, in
Mozambique, Regina’s house was selected to be rebuilt. The family hut where she
lives with her parents, her brother and a cousin, was in severely bad shape.
The family was living under inhumane conditions. ALG rebuilt not only the hut
but also the latrine, providing them a dignified and healthy environment for
her family to live in and to promote Regina’s development.
The funding for this family hut (at a cost of £779) was fully secured by the ALG
Emergency Flood Fund, which relied on the noteworthy contribution of Cascais
City Council (CCC), along with Xai-Xai City.
The Housing initiative gives children more
than just a roof. Through the housing rehabilitation, the right to Nourishment
and a Home is fulfilled as per the Universal Children’s Rights Declaration. A
clean and proper a meal space, and the inclusion of a better latrine, enables a
significant improvement in the health and hygiene conditions, sheltering the
children from the weather conditions and promoting better daily hygiene habits.
Finally, a dignified place to shelter children promotes their psycho-social
development and feelings of protection, comfort and safety.
From £780 to fund a family hut, ALG secures the improvement of the living conditions of
these families through the creation of a safe clean space, with basic health
and hygiene conditions, which allow children to grow in a happy and healthy
way. Our aim is to improve degraded family huts and to break the local poverty
cycle.
