Nepal School System Left Shattered in Aftermath of Quake

While information is still sketchy about the extent of the damage across Nepal, officials say that thousands of schools have been destroyed and that tens of thousands of classrooms need to be replaced.

“Almost one million children who were enrolled in school before the earthquake could now find they have no school building to return to,” said Tomoo Hozumi, Unicef’s representative in Nepal. “Prolonged interruption to education can be devastating for children’s development and future prospects.”

Ain’t no mountain high enough for Mother Nature

In the aftermath of the devastating Nepal earthquake, scientists from the German Aerospace Center observed that part of the Himalayas had dropped by up to 1.5 meters relative its elevation prior to the earthquake. This image is a composite of before-and-after images captured by the European Space Agency’s Sentinel-1A radar satellite; the blue areas mark regions that were uplifted by up to 2 m, while the Langtang range, located northwest of Kathmandu and represented by areas in yellow, experienced the most subsidence. Known for its scenic hiking and mountain-climbing trails, the Langtang range was heavily ravaged by avalanches and landslides triggered by the 7.8-magnitude earthquake and is still an active search-and-rehabilitation region.
