This initiative seeks to strengthen national systems in Haiti to better manage and respond to natural disasters. Haiti is one of the countries most vulnerable to natural disasters and climate change. It is hit by hurricanes on a regular basis. This initiative supports current recovery and rebuilding efforts in various communities that are most vulnerable. In part, it supports Haitian officials at the central, departmental and communal levels so that they can develop and implement communal recovery plans that will prioritize activities in the wake of a disaster. The initiative also pays special attention to the inclusion and participation of women, as socio economic actors and agents of change, in making their communities more resilient in the face of natural disasters.
