Findings so far from the Focus Group Discussions


Children share their views on the reconstruction and Long term Development of Haiti:
“I want rights of children to be respected and all children to know what their rights are. I also want everyone to have access to education,” says quake survivor Daphmika, 15, in Port-au-Prince.
“It’s important that the reconstruction process in Haiti not only concentrates on Port-au-Prince,otherwise people from other towns will keep on coming here and there will be more and more slums. Schools, universities and industries should be built in the provinces so that people in other towns can find work or go to school there.” says 17-year-old Meite.

  1. We are very happy working with children affected by the hearthquake. We founf out many very good ideas and their feelings. Also what they think is good or bad for them. It was also an opportunity to listen and their dreams about the future of our country. I am Stevennson the one who is in the picture facilitating the children consultation
