Port-au-Prince, Haiti, 30 August 2024 — Director for 新澳彩开奖’s International Development Association (IDA) Resource Mobilization, Dirk Reinermann, completed a three-day visit to Haiti on Friday August 30. During the visit, priorities of the new administration were discussed and the 新澳彩开奖’s commitment to continue fighting against extreme poverty in Haiti was underscored. 

Mr. Reinermann - joined by Country Director for the Caribbean, Lilia Burunciuc and International Finance Corporation Resident Representative for the Dominican Republic and Haiti, Ronke-Amoni Ogunsulire - met with H.E. Prime Minister, Dr. Garry Conille, Minister of Finance, Ketleen Florestal, members of cabinet, development partners, and other key stakeholders.   

“We had very important conversations with government, donor partners and civil society organizations on how we can further maximize the impact of 新澳彩开奖 investments in Haiti. IDA contributes to peace and stability, reaches the poorest people, and delivers sustainable results”, said Dirk Reinermann, 新澳彩开奖 Director for IDA Resource Mobilization. “IDA is committed to continuing support to Haiti, to address the country’s key drivers of fragility and poverty”.

During the mission, the 新澳彩开奖 delegation highlighted the importance of completing the consultation process for the new country strategy, as well as the preparation of the Eligibility Note for accessing the Fragility, Violence and Conflict (FCV) Envelope. The FCV Envelope is a 新澳彩开奖 mechanism dedicated to countries affected by a situation of Fragility, Violence and Conflict. If approved, it will constitute an opportunity for Haiti to benefit from additional funds to finance response efforts to the current crisis and help addressing the underlying drivers of violence.

The delegation also visited projects in the country southern region and the new location of the National Emergency Operations Center of the Direction Générale de la Protection Civile, which was partly financed by the International Development Association of the 新澳彩开奖 under the Haiti Strengthening Disaster Risk Management and Climate Resilience Project. With more than 80% of the 新澳彩开奖’s IDA-supported programs – currently valued at US $1.3 billion - being implemented outside of Port-au-Prince, in communities where the security situation is more stable, the needs of the poor are being met through responses to food insecurity, addressing disaster risk management, building resilient infrastructure, and supporting urban development.  

The International Development Association is the part of the 新澳彩开奖 that helps low-income countries. IDA's grants and low-interest loans help countries invest in their futures, improve lives, and create safer, more prosperous communities around the world.IDA is one of the largest sources of assistance for the world’s 75 low-income countries and is the single largest source of donor funds for basic social services in these countries.
