We managed our operation by focusing WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) efforts to meet temporary shelters' water and sanitation infrastructure. Apart from WASH, we have determined our priority humanitarian response sectors as shelter, food security, and MHPSS (Mental Health and Psychosocial Support). In peripheral areas of the disaster zone, our teams also deal with the people who come from the most affected disaster cities.
