This project has been implemented in the province of Azua (south west of the Dominican Republic), where nine communities have benefited from a large number of DRR activities, and one of them stood out for its capitalisation potential: the Mobile and Modular Shelters initiative. This document describes the entire process, from its design, which was based on a process of reflection and exchange of experiences between the consortium members, right through its implementation, with a focus on the testimonies of the beneficiaries and institutions that took part.
