CA-3-P005127001 2026-08-09T06:32:35 May 2017 – Heavy rainfall across the country since January 2017, the most important in over 20 years, has affected over 1 million people and impacted over 200,000 homes. The country’s infrastructure, such as roads, bridges, schools and health centres, has also been severely impacted. As a result, food prices have increased and access to basic services became limited. The environmental conditions in the affected communities and shelters, joined with limited access to health services, increases the risk of vector-borne diseases such as dengue and Zika as well as acute diarrheal diseases. Affected populations, including girls, boys and adolescents, also face considerable protection risks as a result of injuries, displacements and/or stress due to the disaster. With GAC’s support and other donors, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) is helping to increase living conditions and access to basic household items for disaster-affected households in Peru. Project activities include: (1) distributing non-food items for displaced families; (2) providing emergency temporary housing; (3) distributing tool kits for house repairing; and (4) improving access to essential services in camps in the most affected departments.
