About this episode

Chrissy Martin just returned safely from Haiti. This is the first interview with her personal story of what it was like to be in the earthquake and be evacuated to the US.Over the weekend, our colleagues Chrissy Martin and Joshua Haynes launched Project Einstein: Haiti, a joint project of Digital Democracy and Fletcher’s Center for Emerging Market Enterprises (CEME). (See the introductory blog post, and the photoset.) On Saturday and Sunday, they worked with a group of young people between the ages of 18-24, conducting a photo training as well as shooting a few live videos using the Nokia N97. Following the weekend training, they reported having creative and lively discussion with the group, all of whom we hope are safe and secure.We hope that, in the wake of the tragic events, the photos taken by the youth before and after the earthquake can play a constructive role in their community. Please support our efforts and donate to Fonkoze.
