Haiti

This policy aims to reorient Haiti's socio-economic development towards a more low-carbon regime, resilient to adverse climatic conditions attributable to climate change, generating new jobs and contributing to the eradication of poverty and hunger.

<p>The National Disaster Risk Management Plan 2019 - 2030 is divided into four strategic axes, which are aligned with the Sendai Framework, whose action priorities are (i) improving knowledge of disaster risks, (ii) strengthening disaster risk governance, (iii) developing and using financial mechanisms to build the resilience of communities, public and private structures and (iv) improving preparedness for an effective response and rapid recovery after a disaster.</p>
<p>This revised Haitian strategic framework for disaster risk management integrates the issue of climate change and human security. It emphasizes gender sensitivity, the inclusion of people living with disabilities and universal access during the intervention and reconstruction phases. Investment protection, risk transfer, public and community governance of disaster risks, the organization of volunteering and accountability are also integral parts of it. Furthermore, this plan is based on a common vision by focusing action on the role of individuals and communities in disaster risk management. It favours a participatory, inclusive approach and an integrated and holistic strategy.</p>

This plan frames a strategy to ensure a cheap, sustainable and reliable energy system in Haiti over the period 2007 to 2017. The government notably seeks to foster renewable energy resources and energy efficiency.

Specific objectives of the government include 1) support the recapitalisation of companies in difficulties, 2) strengthen the State's regulatory role, 3) improve the conditions for local and foreign investment, and 4) promote alternatives to fuel wood and promote renewable energies including energetic crops and forests.

The plan further calls for the conservation of natural resources, especially forests. Actions supported include 1) the reforestation of strategic areas, 2) conversion to diesel bio-diesel and to LPG of 1,000 small enterprises that use wood as fuel, 3) financial support to cellulose briquette producers, 4) initiation of a study to determine the feasibility of wood imports or exchanges with lime, and 4) promotion of wind and solar through institutional reinforcement and improved access for the poor to energy services.
