Shelter in displacement (Forced Migration Review 55) episodes
- FMR 55 - Low-cost, locally available shelters in PakistanFlooding in 2010 affected 18 million people in Pakistan. With declining donor funds and flooding again in 2011 and 2012, the humanitarian community required low-cost solutions that could be scaled up.11 min
- FMR 55 - From the EditorsAll displaced people need some form of shelter, and circumstances dictate that in reality not much of it conforms to the typical picture of a tent or tarpaulin nor meets official standards.5 min
- FMR 55 - Refugee settlements and sustainable planningWe need to develop refugee settlement planning processes that not only facilitate long-term planning but also allow for incremental upgrading. The case of M’Bera in Mauritania illustrates this.9 min

- FMR 55 - The diversity of data needed to drive designThe developers of the Refugee Housing Unit know every aspect and component of their design but can never know what it is like to wake up in one of them every day.9 min
About Shelter in displacement (Forced Migration Review 55)
From the publisher's feed
All displaced people need some form of shelter. Whatever the type of shelter which is found, provided or built, it needs to answer multiple needs: protection from the elements, physical security,…
safety, comfort, emotional security, some mitigation of risk and unease, and even, as time passes, some semblance of home and community. This FMR looks at the complexity of approaches to shelter both as a physical object in a physical location and as a response to essential human needs. It also contains seven ‘general’ articles on other forced migration topics.
