 This review draws on desk research, interviews in Haiti and written and telephone communication with informants. It is not an evaluation of the effectiveness of the shelter response following the earthquake of January 2010 although it reflects the opinions of some informants on this issue. The review's primary aim is to identify lessons and provide recommendations for the IFRC and the Shelter Cluster on coordination in future emergencies.
