HAITI - Wharf Jeremie (Port au Prince)

16/ 43

A young man dances in the street in Wharf Jeremie. Wharf Jeremie is one of the poorest districts of Port au Prince, a shantytown where about 150.000 people live in miserable conditions and where gangs, drug and arms dealers are free to increase their business. This is one of the areas forbidden by UN because of its dangerousness. Wharf Jeremie is built on a garbage dump among the sea and a little smelly, dark river. This is a high risk area for deseases.
