We would like to thank the Cuny Center in Washington DC for allowing access to the documents that have provided many of the case studies in the historical section. Documents originally developed for the Shelter After Disaster Guidelines published by The Office of the UN Disaster Relief Coordinator (UNDRO) in 1982. (UNDRO later evolved into UNOCHA). The Shelter Guidelines were developed by an international team of consultants including: Fred Cuny and Paul Thompson of INTERTECT, Fred Krimgold from Virginia Tech. and edited by Ian Davis of Oxford Polytechnic.
