The Haiti Earthquake. Impacts and responses
Description
Use this resource to exemplify the effects of a geo-hazard. This film first sets out Haiti's historical context to explain why the impacts were so devastating. Then, using footage filmed straight after the 2010 earthquake and in the three years following, the resource explores the primary and secondary impacts of the quake. The program then looks at a range of short and long term responses, including projects aimed at reducing the outbreak of cholera, improving the housing situation and strengthening livelihoods.
