The "Emergency Response Plan for Severe Weather and Floods in El Salvador" addresses the significant impact of severe weather and heavy floods in June 2024. The extreme conditions led to nationwide Red Alerts and a State of National Emergency, with heavy rains causing extensive flooding, infrastructure damage, and school closures. This disruption jeopardized children's educational continuity and heightened the risk of girls dropping out to assume household responsibilities. The Response Plan highlights urgent humanitarian needs, including food, hygiene kits, shelter, and educational materials for affected families and children. It emphasizes the critical need for immediate educational support, such as providing didactic material kits and restoring damaged infrastructure, to ensure children can continue their education. The plan outlines a budget of USD 126,000 to implement various relief measures, including cash assistance and delivery of educational kits
