PhotoVoice
PhotoVoice is an international non-profit organisation, based in London, UK. Our mission is empowerment to support people in need around the world to use photography as a medium to speak out about their concerns, hopes and fears. Working alongside both international organizations and local partners, we provide in-field photojournalism workshops for those living on the fringes of society. Internationally we provide the platform for these groups to exhibit and market their work.

The pace of reconstruction varies one year after the Indian Ocean tsunami: Unicef UK reports, for example, that Children in Indonesia are recovering at a slower pace than other children. But throughout the affected region, people are struggling to piece their shattered lives together again. OneWorld UK Partners report how they have harnessed the public's generosity in the wake of the disaster and helped the first 12 months' reconstruction effort:
* Hundreds of thousands of children on the way to recovery
* How the money has been used
* Memorial ceremonies throughout the region
* We have helped 500,000 people
* Into action
* Reconstruction Plus
* Life after the tsunami
* War on Want
* Helping women
* World Development Movement
* A priest visits Thailand
* Homeless International's appeal, update and report
* Practical responses
Research and information:
* Natural Disasters Portal looks at the use of cash instead of aid, pro-poor tourism and the economic implications of disasters
* Forced Migration Review
* Eldis
* Global Issues
* ID21
* People and the Planet
* Sarah White returns to Sri Lanka, where she escaped unharmed from the tsunami, to see how people are coping
