UN VOLUNTEERS HELP REBUILD ECUADOR AFTER DEVASTATING EARTHQUAKEOn 16 April 2016, the Pacific coast of Ecuador was hit by a 7.8-magnitude earthquake, the strongest in decades, killing over 500 women, men and children. In collaboration with a number of UN partner agencies on the ground in Ecuador, UNV mobilized UN Volunteers with extensive experience in the field of emergency response and early recovery.
