Through the Eyes of Children: Tsunami relief and reconstruction – 1 year progress report

This report is dedicated to the millions of children whose lives were changed by the earthquake and tsunami in Asia in December 2004. Many thousands of children lost their lives and many surviving children lost one or both parents. Children—especially those living in poverty—are the most vulnerable victims of a disaster and its aftermath. Their families are uprooted and their normal routines are often destroyed.

Through this report, Save the Children brings to donors, staff and friends of the organisation the story of its emergency response and its strategies for the following four years aimed at helping rebuild children’s lives. This information is highlighted by stories and photos that capture Save the Children’s work through the eyes of children.
