This is a key part of the recovery phase, which begins after the immediate life-saving and relief operations are over. The goal is to get essential services up and running to support the affected community's return to normalcy. Without a functioning infrastructure, it is impossible for people to rebuild their lives, businesses to reopen, or for full-scale relief and recovery efforts to proceed. The restoration of infrastructure is a critical step in transitioning from a state of emergency to one of recovery and rehabilitation.
