Abstract

Shaikh Keerio is a remote village located at the extreme south of Sindh province in Pakistan in the coastal belt of the Arabian Sea, 40 km from Badin city. Nearly 300 people belonging to about fi fty households live here. Before the cyclone struck in 1999 this was a prosperous and selfsufficient village. The cyclone left a trail of misery destroying land, homes, property, cattle, fi shing boats and infrastructure. Today Shaikh Keerio has no basic amenities, no school, no dispensary, no road, no electricity, not even drinking water.
