It would entail a housing support cash grant released in installments. The project components are: component 1 - housing assistance; component 2 - water, sanitation, environment mitigation, and settlement plans; component 3 - technical support for implementation; and 4 - project management.

At present there are over 60,000 people living in 141 refugee camps with 41 percent being children who have known no other home than these camps.
