This project aims to sustainably rehabilitate the rural mountainous area of Gressier, which was hard hit by the January 12, 2010 earthquake, by carrying out the reconstruction of 400 permanent, earthquake and hurricane resistant houses, as well as complementary infrastructure (latrines and structures to capture rainwater).
The main expected outcomes of the project are: improved welfare and security of the target populations, especially women, through rebuilding their homes, building the capacity of local community members to build permanent, earthquake and hurricane-resistant houses and increasing the confidence of local community members in local producers of building materials.
