Emergency School Reconstruction Project
This project targets to rebuild and retrofit schools in the districts severely affected by Nepal Earthquake.
Challenge
On April 25, 2015, an earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck northwest of Kathmandu, Nepal’s capital. More than 31,000 classrooms demolished or heavily damaged and another 16,700 classrooms suffering damages in the earthquake.
Given these circumstances, the Emergency School Reconstruction Project (ESRP) of JICA had provided reconstruction, retrofit and repair earthquake-resistant schools and related facilities in 6 districts that suffered particularly severe damage. The education environment will be improved with earthquake-resistant schools, thereby contributing to sustainable socioeconomic development in the region through the Build Back Better (BBB) concept which is the guiding principle to use a disaster as a chance to rebuild resilient society.
