Voices of Haiti

Partners In Health

What was it like to survive the most devastating earthquake in modern history? In this series, Partners In Health doctors, nurses, and staff—all Haitians—share stories about their most salient memories from the January 2010 earthquake. Some discuss the first moments and days after the disaster, while others reflect on the months and years that followed. This is the first time some of our colleagues have ever shared their stories. As a collection, Voices of Haiti provides listeners with a unique and intimate perspective of what it was like to survive and respond to one of the world’s most deadly natural disasters.
