Housing Beneficiaries in Our Village

Here are some of our housing beneficiaries. Use of this term still bothers me…they are people right?! Bloody NGO speak!


This man’s house was destroyed in the war in the late 80’s- early 90s and has been living in various shelters and refugee camps or relatives ever since.


This woman is waiting patiently for us to build her house - standing with her family on the land where her new home is to be built.


This is a typical temporary (read: up to 10 years) shelter from one of our beneficiaries. The low ceilings are what kill me, but I guess most people here are not as tall as I.
Scare crow or just cool factor???? You be the judge. Posted by Picasa
