What happened
The National Disaster Management Authority convened a workshop in Kozhikode to study Kerala’s comprehensive rehabilitation strategy for landslide-ravaged regions of Wayanad. The NDMA is using this strategy to develop a national framework for post-disaster housing recovery and reconstruction. A delegation from Assam attended the three-day workshop to study the model.

Why it matters
The NDMA aims to translate lessons from Wayanad into standardized national guidelines for rebuilding homes and creating disaster-resilient settlements. This recovery framework integrates efforts from the state government, non-governmental organizations, civil society groups, and political parties to ensure complete social and economic rehabilitation for affected families.
