Without shelters, people are not protected against the weather elements and may be exposed to strong winds and cold winters
Houses in slums and squatter settlements have weak foundations
Lack of safe shelter (TB P.66)

Lack of safe shelter (TB P.66)• Walls and roofs of
houses tend to be made of poor quality materials like zinc and cardboard.
• Most of these construction materials are flammable and thus increase the risk of fires in slums.

Lack of safe shelter (TB P.66)
• Weak foundations and unstable walls of houses mean that they are likely to collapse easily during natural disasters, such as floods and earthquakes.

The hut in Figure 3.2 is not safe because it is flimsy and made of flammable materials.
The hut also does not have sufficient basic services.Since it is so small, there is likely to be no toilet or a kitchen.
There is no evidence of piped water and electricity.
