Title:
Haiti woman casually standing against wall smiling.
Description:
A young girl stands near their homes in Cite? Soleil, one of the most notorious neighbourhood in Port-au-Prince. ..Since most homes and structures are not tall, it is assumed that Cite? Soleil is not too badly affected by the earthquake that hit Haiti on January 12. However, it is far from truth. In reality, many houses have been completely collapsed, and most received serious damages to their structures, making them unreliable to live in anymore. Even those whose homes are still standing, prefer to sleep on the street, some under poorly erected tents made from sticks and bed sheets, some under basic tents. Humanitarian aid and services have been slow to reach the neighbourhood, in part due to its reputation as being unsafe..
