Project Duration: November 2026 – January 2027 (3 Months)

Project Summary:

The project aims to support early recovery in flood-affected communities through safe, inclusive and environmentally responsible management of flood debris, construction waste and livestock carcasses. Implemented by Integrated Community Development Campaign (ICDC) Nepal with support from UNDP, the project combines Cash-for-Work (CfW), mechanical equipment, community mobilization and coordination with local governments. It seeks to restore access to roads, agricultural land, public spaces and essential community facilities while creating short-term employment opportunities for vulnerable households.

Result and Activities:

• Engage at least 300 flood-affected people in Cash-for-Work activities, ensuring at least 33% participation of women.
• Remove river debris and construction waste through manual labour and mechanical equipment.
• Support safe demolition and removal of unstable and damaged structures following technical assessments.
• Manage and transport debris to municipality-approved disposal and landfill sites.
• Facilitate safe collection and management of livestock carcasses in coordination with relevant authorities.
• Provide training and orientation on occupational health and safety (OHS), gender equality and social inclusion (GESI), safe debris handling and environmental protection.
• Ensure transparent worker selection, attendance tracking, payment verification, monitoring and reporting.
• Strengthen coordination with local governments, communities, UNDP and other stakeholders.

Beneficiaries:

At least 300 flood-affected individuals from vulnerable households in the targeted communities, including women and other disadvantaged groups, who will benefit from temporary employment and improved community safety, environmental health and access to public infrastructure.
