shelters-from-sexual-violence

Fantastic sales pitch from a supplier (angling for money) - protection from SGBV will take more than a lockable door:

"The only solution is affordable mass shelter in which doors can be locked
at night to keep out rapists.... easy to construct shelters-from-sexual-violence ($4000 per family unit), which can be shipped to Haiti in crates and erected by just two people.
If you can find the funds for us to manufacture them, we will do so as fast as humanly possible and arrange for the US military of DHL to fly them to Haiti."
