Two Years Later - Rebuilding Lives After the Tsunami: The Children's Road to Recovery , December 2006 [387 kb]
Report: One Year On, December 2004
Millions of children's lives were changed by the 2004's Boxing Day earthquake and tsunami. 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 our country updates we would like to update our donors and friends on Save the Children's response and our strategies for the next four years aimed at helping rebuild children's lives.
Our goal is to help create a normal life for children in tsunami-affected areas of Asia. We are encouraged by the progress that has been made thanks to the overwhelming generosity of our supporters around the world. We would like to tell this story with a focus on children a look through the eyes of children at a region beginning to recover.
