  How to deal with the Earthquake losses and develop the post-earthquake reconstruction.

  After devastating earthquakes in Turkey, socio-economic impacts on people, particularly in the impoverished and vulnerable areas, could be severe. The post-earthquake reconstruction activities aim to restore the social stability and livelihood of earthquake-affected communities through the following measures:

  Emergency Response: Rescue operations, financial provisions, and a strong emergency action plan enable quick help and immediate response in saving people's lives and minimizing harm to property.

  Restoration and Infrastructure Repair: Basic necessities, such as electricity, gas, water, sanitation systems, and other essential infrastructure, are repaired or reconstructed to support the city's resumption of activity.

  Housing: In order to avoid homelessness, various measures are taken to provide shelter for affected persons, including temporary ones（container house）.

  Ensuring Accessibility: All services and infrastructure should be aggressively evaluated and improved to help earthquake-affected groups and ensure accessibility for all members of the society.

  Preparedness: After an earthquake, steps are taken to build disaster preparedness capacity so that such catastrophic events can be avoided in the future.

  The state provides financial aid to the earthquake-victims who have suffered from the catastrophic consequences of earthquakes, and it quickly takes extensive measures in crisis management to minimize the negative impact and to refurbish their diminished living conditions.
