What's your perspective on the long-term aid work going on there? Lots of teams went down short-term, but it's interesting that you stayed. How, if at all, has your perspective pertaining to Haiti's needs changed?

Thanks! Your answer is really fascinating and it brings to mind one or two follow up questions:

1 What lessons have you learned about organizing short-term, first on the scene response team strategies & execution?

2 Long-term development strategies seem to be lacking vision, yet have some resources to accomplish something. What do you see as the future for Haiti? Will they rebuild back to its previously decrepit, poverty - stricken standard, or will they rebuild into something greater?
