Two Stages of Recovery
1. Re-establish a sense of security
Reduce fear, support grieving, reopen businesses, re-establish joy
2. Link relief to recovery
Reassess vulnerability - strengthen and sustain relief activities.
Get life and commerce back to normal.
Improve on pre-disaster living conditions - longer-term work that addresses the underlying causes of food shortages and poverty

Stage 2: Link Relief to Recovery
Reassess vulnerability
Ongoing assessments of levels of vulnerability by population and geographic region will be needed to select recovery beneficiaries.
Determine who is still vulnerable and will have trouble getting back on their feet.
Determine the coping strategies that people have used in response to the pandemic

Work toward future resilience
A. Identify what can be done with local resources and manpower to get livelihood activities functioning again
B. Identify areas that need external help. For example, farming could begin again with local
resources but re-establishing market linkages may need external support.
C. Seek external resources and support if they are needed
