This work on Canaan is part of the study “Reconstruction and the Environment in the metropolitan region of Port-au-Prince”. It analyses the reconstruction strategy adopted by decision makers, the consequences for the environment and the related risks for the population of the metropolitan region of Port-au-Prince. Canaan is an interesting case on several counts, such as the fact that there are tens of thousands of people there now on what was a vast uninhabited space before the earthquake.
