People march during a torchlight procession in L'Aquila in the early hours of July 6, 2009 to commemorate the third month anniversary since the 6.3 magnitude quake which hit the Abruzzo region on April 6. Earthquake survivors in central Italy's L'Aquila hope that hosting next week's G8 summit will bring aid to rebuild their homes from the rubble, providing a grim metaphor for the task world leaders face on the economy.
