The children and communities where Plan works in its tsunami response have gone a long way in the last 36 months. A disaster of the magnitude of the Asian tsunami requires much more than just rebuilding houses; it requires rebuilding entire communities. This brings an opportunity for social change.

Thus the Plan tsunami response reaches far beyond the actual disaster, and promotes rights and participation. The communities where Plan works is achieving these impressive results. The Child Centred Community Development or CCCD approach made these results possible, especially for children.

This report may help Plan to examine the ways in which its CCCD strategies can be further strengthened. Often, it is only through hindsight that one can engender foresight. The process of acquiring hindsight often provides the insights that help to illuminate strategies for the future. This report is about that process.
