Factsheet
Brief outline of PfR's intervention in Nicaragua containing key data about the area of the beneficiaries in Somoto in the Madriz region.
The geographic position of Nicaragua makes it highly vulnerable to recurring disasters like earthquakes, floods, landslides, hurricanes, droughts, tsunamis and volcanic eruptions. It is estimated that over the last four decades the country lost around four billion dollars due to disasters.
