After the 2010 earthquake a farmer's organization helps its members rebuild their homes. Rather than spend money and time on temporary shelters they work with the farmers and the “Konbit,” a Haitian shared labor system, to rebuild permanent homes at a fraction of the cost that international organizations are spending on their three phase system of relief, relieve and rebuild.
