The toolkit provides guidance on the assessment and interventions for a cross-sectoral MHM response in emergency contexts. It also discusses the MHM response to Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines, in particular on the recovery period of the disaster in the school sector; lessons learned from the response; and how these insights could be used to improve MHM programming in schools in development and emergency situations.
