LIVE from Haiti: 2nd Anniversary of the Earthquake

This videoconference session is being held to mark the second anniversary of the earthquake that shook Haiti on January 12, 2010. It is an occasion to take a look at Canada's contribution in this country over the past two years. Schools across Canada are invited to take part in this videoconference under the theme “There for Haiti”. During this session, students will connect to young people in Haiti, hear their stories and view images of humanitarian assistance, reconstruction and development projects. They will also have the opportunity to talk with Government of Canada representatives, including the Director of Cooperation live from Port-au-Prince, who will share their personal experience and talk about CIDA’s efforts to assist the most vulnerable and to rebuild Haiti. (This session will have elements in both French and English)

To be an interactive school, you will need to contribute artistically though, through song, dance OR art.
