Migration
Following three periods of heavy rainfall during the particularly intense 2011
monsoon, many people were displaced by widespread flooding in Sindh and
Balochistan and localised riverine flooding along some stretches of the Indus.
Approximately 823,000 houses were damaged or destroyed in the two provinces,
and an estimated 1.8 million people (300k households) were displaced.
In agreement with the government, the Shelter Cluster was rolled out in
September 2011. It incorporated the Temporary Settlement Support Unit (TSSU),
tasked with certain CCCM information management responsibilities. Specifically,
TSSU monitored and reported on the locations of and conditions in temporary
settlements that sprang up as people were displaced due to rising floodwaters
and collapsed houses. In September 2012, the Pakistan Humanitarian Country
Team confirmed IOM as national lead agency for the CCCM and Shelter Cluster.View entire presentation
