This R&D covers the topic of rebuilding Haiti after Hurricane Matthew. The natural disaster killed more than five hundred people and has left 1.4 million in need of humanitarian assistance. Complicating relief efforts is the suspicion of United Nations relief activities that lingers six years after a cholera epidemic was spread to the island nation by UN peacekeepers.
