After being displaced from their war-ravaged homes in Marawi City due to the siege by Islamic State militants in 2017, some 109 families can now restart their lives in new homes.

“Having a house that the IDPs can now call their own is part of our commitment in ensuring Marawi’s overall rehabilitation,” said Housing Secretary Eduardo del Rosario, chair of Task Force Bangon Marawi.Del Rosario added that the 109 families were the first to receive permanent shelters last Thursday. The houses are constructed within a 1.8-hectare property in West Dulay village.

According to the United Nations Human Settlement Program , each two-story house has a floor area of 42 square meters, equipped with toilet and bathroom, a kitchen, basic lighting, and electrical outlets.
