As with all natural disasters, the earthquake relief effort is fading from the headlines as the months pass. Because we and our employees offered some financial support through CARE, we received this report, which gives an update on what has been done and how agencies are approaching continued relief and development efforts. I thought it might be interesting for others to see what agencies are doing and how they assess their work.

Inter-Agency Real Time Evaluation of the Humanitarian Response to the Haiti Earthquake

The magnitude of the need is overwhelming, and the challenges of providing effective assistance are daunting. But that is the nature of humanitarian crises. I am glad that CARE and other agencies have such dedicated staff working so hard to help Haiti recover, and that CARE shares these reports.
