What is..?
Emergency housing refers to rapidly deployable living accommodation designed to protect people who have lost their homes as a result of disasters, conflict or humanitarian crises. Using prefabricated and modular construction technologies, emergency housing units are manufactured in factory controlled conditions and then transported to site for quick installation, enabling fast and safe occupancy.
These housing systems are engineered to meet international humanitarian and safety standards, providing secure, weather resistant, hygienic and dignified living spaces for families and vulnerable groups during the emergency and stabilization phases.

Advantages
Emergency housing offers speed above all. Off site production allows large volumes of units to be fabricated and installed in very short timeframes, reducing the period during which affected communities are exposed to unsafe conditions.
Durability and safety are essential strengths. Modular emergency housing is designed for intensive daily use, harsh climates and complex logistics, while ensuring compliance with structural, insulation, ventilation and fire protection standards.
Flexibility is another key benefit. Housing units can be relocated, expanded or reconfigured as needs evolve, and can transition from temporary to longer term use. Standardized production provides predictable quality, cost control and simplified logistics for large scale humanitarian operations.
Environmental benefits include reduced material waste, controlled resource management and minimized on site disturbance through industrialized, off site manufacturing.

Usage Areas
Emergency housing is used in disaster response operations following earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, wildfires, landslides and other crises. It is also deployed in refugee and IDP settlements in conflict affected regions, and as temporary relocation housing during reconstruction or urban renewal programs.
These modular housing units support families, vulnerable individuals, humanitarian staff and essential service providers, and can be combined with modular clinics, schools, kitchens, offices and sanitation facilities to create complete settlements.
Emergency housing is particularly valuable in remote or unstable environments where traditional construction is slow, unsafe or impractical.
