There was a discussion here on "Disaster response" in April. https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2017-April/032127.html Another discussion back in December 2015 "If a school is a shelter when a disaster happens..." https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2015-December/027929.html
amenity=shelter is well established for (mainly) recreational uses, which is very different from emergency shelters. There are a few different practices/facilities meant by the word "shelter", perhaps using different terms would help to make a distinction.
