Reconstruction in Nepal after the catastrophe will cost an estimated 4.1 billion euros. This amount was announced to address the enormous damage caused by the disaster that hit the region.
The wave that devastated valleys in the region was caused by the collapse of a glacier and rocks. This large-scale natural phenomenon caused massive destruction in inhabited areas.
The death toll from the tragedy exceeds 1,400 dead and 5,600 injured. The victims were recorded both in Nepal and in China, the neighboring country also affected by the wave.
The disaster represents one of the biggest humanitarian and reconstruction challenges that Nepal faces, requiring a significant financial effort to recover the affected areas.
