Haiti's January 12, 2010 earthquake displaced 1.5 million. Five years later, an estimated 85,432 people remain in tent camps. The international response, which pledged some $10 billion to rebuild Haiti, has so far produced only 9,032 new houses. USAID originally planned to help build 15,000 new homes, but has revised that number downward to just 2,600 homes.

How would this compare to domestic (U.S.) recovery programs? For example, what was the status of planned rebuilds and rebuilt homes four years after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans?

While it is good to see that work was indeed done, it is unfortunate that our hierarchy of priorities often leaves people in desperate need with little recourse.
