Maafushi, Kaafu Atoll Maldives
Maafushi (Dhivehi: ??????) is one of the inhabited islands of Kaafu Atoll. It was heavily damaged in the 2004 tsunami which impacted on over 100,000 of the Maldives 300,000 population. The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, supported by the Irish and American Red Cross Socieites, began work on a mains sewage system on August 10, 2006. The International Federation has also funded the building of homes for those who lost theirs during the tsunami. Both schemes are carried out in partnership with commercial contractors and with the support and involvement of the local community.
Maafushi Prison is located on this island.
