How we built this content
The challenges presented in this chapter reflect the insight of Renova Foundation management in March 2017 into the priority issues to be addressed by our teams in their recovery engagements.
After liaising with those affected and the program managers, we selected the topics in this stage which cur-rently present the greatest challenges or progress. They do not embrace all the issues we are working on, but rather are a sample of the most critical topics raised during our first eight months of operations, from August 2016 to March 2017.
