Headline UNESCO's Pilot Project in Haiti's Marbial Valley 
Caption Description The Marbial Valley.
An "under-privileged" area: home of 28,000 people. In 1947 the Government of Haiti asked UNESCO to start a pilot project in Fundamental Education in the rural region of Marbial. UNESCO agreed to attempt the project and in April 1948 it sent a survey team to Marbial headed by Dr. Alfred Metreaux, an anthropologist. The survey pointed out that 15% of the valley's land was lost to erosion and that 70% was substandard.
