Very shortly after the earthquake, Terre des Hommes launched a psychosocial project of recreational activities, in the form of "centres", with the aim of reaching 5'000 children. At the present time these objectives have been more than achieved: 17 centres have been created, reaching nearly 10'000 children, thanks also to the support given by Tdh to kindergartens, sports clubs, cultural activities, etc.
