New Haiti photo case study by DfID

To mark the six month anniversary of the earthquake that struck Haiti in January 2010, the Department for International Development (DfID) has produced a photo case study showing Handicap International's work in Haiti. www.dfid.gov.uk/haiti-handicap-international

Handicap International currently has a team of 500 people in Haiti, including 80 expatriate staff. It is the organisation's largest ever deployment. Handicap International’s activities in Haiti are based on three key pillars: health, meeting basic needs and managing a logistics platform. DFID provided £500,000 of humanitarian funding for Handicap International's emergency response. To date, more than 10,000 people have benefited from Handicap International’s health provision in Haiti.
