Haiti , one year after the earthquake

One year after January 12 2010 earthquake the scars are omnipresent. However the improvements are obvious. Most people who lost their houses still live in tent camps, hundreds of international NGO are working hard to build new houses for the people in need. The life came back to the streets of Port Au Prince, Leogane, Cabaret for good.

One of the big issues in Haiti is access to the clean water.
American actor Sean Penn and Sanela Diana Jenkins founded a tent camp on the grounds of luxurious Petionville Golf club




One of the worst tent camps I saw, it is loceted by a busy road. All the tents are completely covered by dust

Port Au Prince, Haiti

I am presently with Polish Humanitarian Action  in Port Au Prince , Haiti. My job is to document three projects which this biggest polish NGO started after 2010 earthquake.
I am also shooting on the side, here are some off-shots:

From now I will try to post something new everyday.
These images do not represent what it is like in Haiti. They are just what I have found here.
