Today Habitat for Humanity Malawi handed over 4 semi-detached insulated prefabricated houses to 8 families that were displaced due to cyclones Gombe and Ana.
The project was funded by Nostos Homes from India who donated the materials and later travelled to Malawi to construct the houses with the help of local artisans. The units were constructed to withstand disaster as the foundations were raised and were constructed using cement blocks.
For Habitat for Humanity Malawi, this is the first time to construct these types of houses.
The Director from Department Disaster Management Affairs Reverend Moses Chimphepo received these houses on behalf of government. The Director for Planning and Development for Phalombe district council, Traditional Authority Jenala, Ward Councillor and other community leaders were present to witness the occasion.
