The work of receiving, sorting and delivery of aid to the victims of the combination of adverse events this year in Haiti, represented by the January earthquake, the cholera epidemic began in late October and Thomas the hurricane last weekend, were not affected despite the heavy rains and winds from Hurricane Thomas.
Ni PROMESS facilities in Puerto Prince, warehouse maintained by PAHO / WHO provided logistical support service to humanitarian aid, nor any involvement processes were implemented, which has allowed the support of the work directed to NGOs, institutions providing health services, agencies Disaster Response and the Ministry of Health to get aid to people affected by these disasters.
PROMESS are using the LSS / SUMA system, designed especially for this type of process.
