Humanitarian Response Plan

Humanitarian Response Plan

In 2019, more than 2.6 million people in Haiti will need assistance, including 1.3 million people targeted by the Humanitarian Response Plan. In a context of economic fragility and socio-political tensions, the successive shocks that have affected the country (including natural disasters, epidemics, population displacements), combined with structural weaknesses limiting access to basic services, have considerably increased the chronic vulnerability of the Haitian population and reduced its capacity for resilience.

Investing in people to fight poverty in Haiti. Reflection for evidence based policy making

Despite a decline in both monetary and multidimensional poverty rates since 2000, Haiti remains among the poorest and most unequal countries in Latin America. Two years after the 2010 earthquake, poverty was still high, particularly in rural areas. This report establishes that in 2012 more than one in two Haitians was poor, living on less than $ 2.41 a day, and one person in four was living below the national extreme poverty line of $1.23 a day.

Caribbean Development Bank. Country Strategy Paper 2013-16 Haiti. Staff Report

The Haitian economy is still recovering from the January 2010 earthquake albeit at a slower pace than anticipated. Prudent macroeconomic policies have helped keep inflation in the single digits and improved the external position. However, less than anticipated capital spending coupled with a series of disasters, including a cholera outbreak and tropical storms, has slowed down the reconstruction and economic recovery.

Plan National d’Investissement Agricole. Développement des Infrastructures Rurales : Annexe 2 Composante Irrigation

Malgré l’abondance des précipitations dans une large part du pays, l’irrigation se justifie en raison de la grande irrégularité des précipitations due a une géographie montagneuse (saison sèche plus ou moins longue et prononcée, apparition d’épisodes secs prolongés durant la saison pluvieuse, et forte intensité des pluies) et à l’exposition aux vents maritimes.
