A government-sponsored expo that aims to offer feasible housing ideas for earthquake-ravaged Haiti is now under way on a former sugar plantation just north of Port-au-Prince.
On three acres in the rural village of Zoranger, 60 prototypes for affordable, single-family homes are on view as part of the “Building Back Better Communities” expo, a three-month event organized by the Haitian government with help from the Clinton Foundation and other entities. The expo, which opened July 21 and runs through September, comes a year and a half after a massive earthquake devastated the impoverished, island country. An estimated 635,000 people are still in tent camps.
