1. Supporting people with disabilities (PWDs) and their families who were seriously affected during and after storms and floods in Central Vietnam As soon as the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic subsided at the end of summer 2020, storms and floods continuously hit the provinces in Central Vietnam, causing a large number of deaths and great damage to local residents’ property. Among the affected provinces, Quang Tri Province, Thua Thien Hue Province and Quang Nam Province were the most seriously influenced. These are also where ACDC’s projects were implemented. There were around 186,000 PWDs living there (Quang Tri Province: 37,000; Thua Thien Hue Province: 30,000; Quang Nam Province: 60,000 and Quang Ngai Province: 59,000 people). Therefore, ACDC collaborated with partners, proactively collected information about PWDs in the affected areas and got ready for emergency relief.
