Welcome to the twenty-ninth issue of OPEN MIC NEPAL bulletin. The Open Mic project captures rumours and perceptions on the ground to eliminate information gaps between the media, humanitarian agencies and local people. By providing local media and outreach workers with facts, Open Mic aims to create a better understanding of the needs of the earthquake-affected communities and to debunk rumours before they can do any harm.
This week's issue contains:
Question about the necessity of landownership documents for the reconstruction grant
Concerns about the delay in winter support distribution in some VDCs of Kavrepalancowk
Questions about the reassessment of damages
Rumour that donors have threatened to withdraw reconstruction aid
