  How can Finland participate in reconstruction of Haiti? Honkarakenne Oyj is one of the active members of the committee of Finnish experts who participated with Finpro in the disaster evaluation conducted by Kimmo Pohjanpalo, honorary council of Haiti.
  
  The scale of destruction is enormous and the situation is becoming urgent: 1,3 million people are living in tents and in temporary housing and this as the rainy and hurricane seasons begin.
  
  The committee is led by Jean-Marie Vorbe to visits the spots for future construction of buildings of 18 m2 ble to be enlarged hereafter. Once the question of housing is settled, the basic problem remains. The infrastructure of Haiti has been largely destroyed. The question real need is to help Haiti to restart its economy by helping the tourism, education and health.
  
  Honka is investing in tourism equipment, schooling facilities and hospital and social constructions and its associated equipment. Two crucial assets are Honka’s knowledge in terms of antisismic log buildings validated by test carried out in Japan in 2008 with excellent results, and Honkas’ engagement in sustainable construction.
  
  Honka has solutions to two new problems: urgency and sustainability.
  
  What type of product range is Honka able to produce in such quantities?
  Is Honka able to manufacture rapidly in a large quantity?
  
  With 50 years experience in building in rough climate, Honka is actively finding solutions will enable Haitians to integrate new structures with the existing local wooden architecture.
  
  Architect Pierre Monfreda who has worked in Bali as a supervisor will be one of the supervisors in the reconstruction in Haiti.
  
  The Finnish Red Cross and the Lutheran church are other actors in the Finnish humanitarian aid in Haiti. They are coordinating their actions on local constructions which are resistant to earthquakes and are sustainable.
