This starts with improving morale by empowering families at risk
​
to be proactive in shelter preparedness
by assembling their own
"personal" RSK shelter kit
​
to be able to build a strong and secure shelter quickly and efficiently when a disaster occurs
to be able to easily repair, maintain and upgrade their shelter
​
​
​
Providing a well ventilated comfortable
living space
​
that encourages "personalisation" of their shelter by allowing the family to maintain and upgrade their shelter over time.
​
Unlike traditional shelters the walls of the RSK do not support the roof
​
so they are easily filled in with available materials such as earth bags, bamboo lattice and mud
​
​
which, together with the roof insulation, gives an additional feeling of security and well being for the shelter occupants
