| Summary: | Five years into Haiti’s reconstruction
following the devastating earthquake of 2010, the country is
experiencing an economic and a political transition.
Although many challenges brought by the earthquake remain to
be fully addressed, Haiti’s focus has shifted from
reconstruction to longer term development and to securing a
more prosperous future for its people. This World Bank Group
(WBG) Country Partnership Framework (CPF) for FY2016-2019
proposes to support Haiti’s efforts to reduce poverty and
boost shared prosperity, in line with the priorities of the
Government of Haiti. This CPF follows two Interim Strategy
Notes (ISNs), which framed the WBG’s significant
post-earthquake response over the FY2012-2015 period,
financed by an exceptional allocation from the IDA 16 Crisis
Response Window (US$500M equivalent). Over this period a
substantially expanded WBG program supported reconstruction.
However, the program was also designed to continue to help
the country address its long term development challenges and
capitalize on new opportunities as Haiti gradually
transitioned out of the reconstruction phase. Today, a CPF
aimed at long-term objectives is appropriate. |
