Haiti Reconstruction: Factors Contributing to Delays in USAID Infrastructure Construction
Summary: The US Government Accountability Office's November 2011 report to Congressional committees on Haiti reconstruction, examining why USAID infrastructure construction was delayed.
Key Findings
- An audit rather than a program document, so its account of delay is independent of the implementing agency.
- Examines governance and rule of law spending alongside infrastructure.
- Reported to Congressional committees in November 2011.
Full Description
The US Government Accountability Office's November 2011 report to Congressional committees on Haiti reconstruction, examining why USAID infrastructure construction was delayed. GAO reports are audits rather than program documents, so they record what went wrong with an independence that implementing agencies' own reporting does not have.
