Criteria for inclusion

Once case studies have been submitted, the project panel will decide which ones to include. The panel will use the following criteria as a guide to agree on which case studies should be included:

  • The shelter project must be wholly, or solid learnings from the project can be gained.
  • Given the scale of emergency shelter need every year, case
    studies must have had large scale impacts. Discontinued trials or design concepts will not be included.
  • The majority of the project must be implemented within the first year following a natural disaster. For conflict affected populations, chronic
    emergencies and returns processes, longer time scales would be considered.
  • Accurate project information is available from staff involved in the project implementation.
  • The case studies should illustrate a diversity of approaches to meet shelter need. Providing shelter is more than simply designing architecturally impressive structures.
