Croatia: Switzerland responds to appeal for emergency shelters

Thousands lost their homes as a result of the earthquake that hit Croatia at the end of last year. In response to a request from the Croatian authorities, Swiss Humanitarian Aid is supplying emergency shelters to the earthquake survivors. Two specialists from the Swiss Humanitarian Aid Unit were deployed to Croatia to help implement Switzerland's relief efforts together with the civil protection authorities. Now back in Switzerland, they share their experiences.
