Damage, loss and needs assessment guidance notes: Volume 3. Estimation of post-disaster needs for recovery and reconstruction

This guideline illustrates how to derive the financial needs for recovery and reconstruction. This is done following a sector by sector damage and loss assessment, which itemizes distribution and priority setting based on geopolitical divisions, sectors of the economy, and different population groupings in the affected area. It also explains how to formulate a calendar of investments and to identify distribution channels for funding

The guidance notes comprise three volumes i) Guideline for Task Team Leaders (TTL) in the Design and Execution of a Damage, Loss and Needs Assessment, ii) Conducting Damage and Loss Assessments after Disasters, and iii) Estimation of Post-Disaster Needs for Recovery and Reconstruction.
