The purpose of this document is to compile the necessary information for planning, monitoring, and reporting Shelter Cluster Activities included in the Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP) 2025. It describes the intended outcome for each proposed activity, identifies the most suitable indicators for each activity, recommends modalities of assistance, shows the reference cost, and provides instructions for ensuring coherence in activity reporting among different partners. This document does not replace Shelter Cluster's technical guidelines and should be read together with them.
