    Anna speaks to Marc Antoine, Tearfund's Country Director for Haiti, about his experience of telling the truth for climate justice, ongoing crises, addressing issues of poverty and empowering young people.

Pray for ways to be made for them to study and to play with other children. And pray that they will not be recruited into gangs. Lift up the conflict resolution training Tearfund is running.
