  4. 1. History • What we have done • Draftedperformance standards, informed by ongoing prototype development (completed 2004) • Formed Project Consortium and reviewed and revised draft standards • Finalised and published cold and hot climate performance standards • Draft of Shelter Standards launched at SM08a • Identified manufacturers to display prototypes at SM08b • Manufacturers developed prototypes for review at SM09a and SM09b.

  5. 2. Objectives • Transitional Shelter • Standards & Prototypes objectives • Bring together in a Consortium the humanitarian community of experienced donors, UN bodies and implementing agencies • Engage a series of manufacturers to build confidence within the humanitarian community that credible Transitional Shelters can be produced • Agree finalised Transitional Shelter Standards • Work with manufacturers to develop a collection of stockpilable family Transitional Shelter Prototypes that achieve the Transitional Shelter Standards.

Next steps • Next steps • Shelter Centre to explore, with the humanitarian community, the opportunity for testing to support transitional shelter and the project • Manufactures to develop prototypes further with winterisation options • Shelter Centre and manufacturers to present progress on test regime and winterisation at SM10b • Test regime Standards to be finalised by SM11a • Shelters to be tested for accreditation

  12. 6. Outputs • Outputs • Finalised Transitional Shelter Standards, tested through prototyping and agreed by both the manufacturers and humanitarian community • Feasible, credible Transitional Shelters, demonstrated through achieving within the humanitarian community and amongst shelter manufacturers of the challenges of winterisation • A variety of working Transitional Shelter Prototypes, developed over time by shelter manufacturers, via a process of feedback and revision • A practical and affordable test regime
