====Shelter==== The provision of appropriate shelter is concerned with providing suitable [[House|housing]] for families and communities. It is highly specific to context of [[culture]], location, [[climate]] and other factors. In development, it is concerned with providing housing of an appropriate quality and type to accommodate people in the long term. This is distinct from shelter in relief, which is concerned with providing sufficient shelter to maintain life.<ref name="sphere" /> Examples of organisations specialising in shelter are: * [[UN-HABITAT]] (development) * [[UNHCR]] (relief) * [[Shelter Centre]] (relief) * [[Architecture for Humanity]] (relief and development) * [[Article 25]] (relief and development) * [[ARCHIVE Global]] (development)
