The largest earthquake ever recorded in Haiti devastated parts of
the country, including the capital, on January 12, 2010. The quake,
centred about 15 miles south-west of Port-au-Prince, was a
magnitude of 7.0, followed by a series of severe aftershocks. It is
estimated that 3 million people, approximately one third of the
overall population, have been affected by the earthquake. The
Government of Haiti is reporting an estimated 112,000 deaths and
194,000 injured. This book explores the Haitian earthquake and
global response as immediate needs are met and the humanitarian
relief operation continues. The government is struggling to restore
the institutions needed for it to function, ensure political
stability, and address long-term reconstruction and development
planning.
