Jalousie slum district on the hills side

• Haiti
• Port-au-Prince

Description

Jalousie slum spreads on the hills, zoom on some of its inhabitants. Children play a football game. Jalousie, a neighbourhood in Haiti with hardly any electricity or water, is now part of the project beauty versus poverty.

The poorly built cinder block homes, clinging to the side of a mountain, are being painted with different pastel blues, reds and yellows.

While some residents say the project make them proud of their neighbourhood, others say it is a way to camouflage misery.
