Haiti Earthquake: 6 months anniversary
RELIEF Background:
The 12 January earthquake claimed the lives of more than 222,000 people, left more than 300,000 injured and at its peak displaced 2.3 million people. 1.5 million people are currently living in spontaneous settlements in the capital Port au Prince, and in the outlying towns of Leogane, Petit Goave and Jacmel. (UN figures)
The disaster was on a scale that would have set the best prepared country reeling. Instead it hit the capital city of one of the poorest countries in the world. The earthquake brought a humanitarian disaster to a country that was already facing a humanitarian crisis. Faced with massive humanitarian needs, the Red Cross Red Crescent mounted its biggest and fastest ever emergency response in a single country. Already, more than 11,000 tons of aid and supplies have arrived by air, sea, and road from all over the world.

What the population wants is a wooden shelter. Why? Because of the trauma due to the earthquake people are extremely scared of living in a concrete house because so many people have died under the rubble so I think this is what the people want. Also because so many are renters we want to give houses to them that can be moved and dismantled it is another reason that wooden structures for the population are a good answer. |
