Earthquake Aftermath - 2006

Earthquake Aftermath (2006): Australian volunteers are helping those left homeless in the most remote corners of Northern Pakistan after the earthquake.

In Northern Pakistan, an estimated three million are still homeless, having to live in so-called 'tent cities'. Entire villages have been wiped out, replaced by rubble. There is a lack of proper equipment to rebuild the towns and men resort to sledgehammers or their bare hands to clear the ground. Living conditions are tough and families barely survive but Australian doctors and nurses believe they can make a difference. Volunteers of the Australian Red Cross and Australian armed forces work hard to alleviate the pain of the sick and injured. They use helicopters to access the most remote areas and transport patients who would otherwise have no chance of getting treatment.
