Cory Richards Instagram – The thing about earthquakes is that they impact poor and vulnerable communities the most. Those who can’t afford to reinforce their homes, or who don’t have a surplus of resources like family, income, or grain to weather months of rebuilding and trauma.
In light of the recent 6.4 magnitude earthquake that struck Western Nepal last night – just miles from Mustang – and our hope to focus public attention on supporting relief efforts, we will postpone our travelogue until next week.
Currently, there are 150 known deaths from the quake with many hundreds more injured and tens of thousands left without shelter as winter approaches. Please watch this space for updates on how you can help the families in Jajarkot and Rukum recover and build back better.
With love,
