This project seeks to respond to the urgent needs of IDP families currently living in the Maslakh settlement by de-facto formalizing the settlement and providing basic services (water, shelter and in a later stage also other facilities), and support for livelihood opportunities. The upgrading of Maslakh will also offer in the future opportunities to other IDP families living in Shaydaee who expressed interest to be relocated to Maslakh. Shaydaee is a settlements which are lacking the political and landowner support for local integration at the current location and cannot be formalized and upgraded due to the high value of the land they occupy.   

This project focuses on supporting the approximately 3,518 IDP families living in Maslakh, and in a later stage 581 families in Minaret and 2,188 families in Shaydaee by using the existing political will to accept local integration of IDP families. The project will conduct necessary surveys to register plots and properties (Maslakh only) of and to issue occupancy documents to those families who have been denied the basic human rights of decent shelter, tenure security and access to basic services so that they will be accepted as permanent residents of Herat and alleviate some of the most pressing needs for services (school, clinic and additional water supply).
