Response
Despite the current constraints faced by the shelter and NFI Sector partners, the Sector, through its partners, assisted 10,653 HH with Shelter and NFI related support.

To date the sector has managed to cover 21% of of its overall target. Further efforts by the sector partners are being applied towards curbing the effects of the floods on shelters in camps and host communities through a series of mitigation measures and community engagement.
Gaps / challenges
In the the reporting month of September 2021, the humanitarian needs continue to increase as a significant number of IDPs need shelter and non-food items, respectively. Sector and its partners (Shelter and NFI) prepositioned/stockpiled items have been exhausted, making shelter and NFI response difficult. Furthermore, lack of available land to construct transitional shelters solutions remains the most pertinent issue requiring joint advocacy by all concerned partners. Funding constraints and inadequate shelter and NFI stocks lead to negative consequences, and delays in response to urgent needs across BAY state continues to increase requirements
