Reconstruction of the roof of a residential building in Irpin.
The Irpin-4 OSBB Zatizhniy Dim project addresses the critical need for roof repair in a residential building that suffered damage during the early stages of the conflict. This building, consisting of 36 apartments and housing for about 130 residents, suffered the impact of debris falling on the roof and facade, as a nearby building was completely destroyed during the first weeks of the war. The period between June 2022 and February 2023 witnessed a concerted effort by residents, local authorities and other generous donors to clear the rubble, restore essential utilities (water, electricity, gas) and repair windows, doors and the drainage system . However, the damaged roof, which was only temporarily covered, led to leaks and moisture problems in the building.
Status:
Completed (April-June 2023)
Financial information:
- ODU Contribution: EURO 38,500 (Source: Oxfam)
- Local contributions: EURO 37,000
Target group and results:
The successful completion of the roof restoration project ensured that all 130 residents could continue to live in their flats with a fully restored and safe roof over their heads. This achievement was critical in maintaining the restoration efforts of the previous months and avoiding setbacks due to leakage and moisture issues caused by the damaged roof.
