"Oh, a storm is threatning
My very life today
If I dont get some shelter
Oh yeah, Im gonna fade away"
--from Gimme Shelter, by the Rolling Stones
Shelter construction is a joyful activity, done by teams of refugees on behalf of their neighbors.
The shelters start out as wooden pole and plastic sheeting structures, but within a short time people will have "mudded" the walls of the their own homes and the new quartiers will be transformed into something more closely resembling a village.
Temporary, yes, but shelter from the storm.
