The Latin pop star's visits to Haiti is to look at potential sites where she intends to build a school for Haiti children.

Shakira's school will be similar to the one established by her Barefoot foundation in Colombia. She said: " Providing education to Haitian children would be a key part of the reconstruction of the quake-shattered country, which even before the disaster was already the poorest nation in the Western hemisphere."
