UNHCR Family Tent
Proper Installation and Tips
3 people is ideal to set up a
tent.
It’s always more efficient if one
leader coordinates the setup.
The tent setup will take
about 20 min per tent.
Follow the instructions in the
installation manual provided
with the tent.
Selecting the setup site
Choose a safe site, away from polluted water,
landslides, falling rocks, and from dangerous
and loud areas.
Preferably, set up on stable well drained soil
that is as flat as possible.
