Government Intervention Priorities for 2014-2016

The document presents the investment priorities that the Haitian authorities chose in order to implement the Plan Stratégique de Développement d'Haïti (PSDH), whose main objective is to make Haiti an emerging country within 20 years. The priorities are to feed the Cadre Triennal for 2014-2016, a Programme Triennal d'Investissement of about US$6 billion, more than 80 percent of which is to go to the priorities, and the annual public investment programs for 2013-2014, 2014-2015 and 2015-2016. The financing required for the five priorities over three years is US$5,058.8 million, an average of about US$1.7 billion a year, and the authorities ask development partners and the private sector to help meet it.

Each priority chapter lists general objectives, main and secondary components, activities, and costs for 2014, 2015 and 2016, with the subsequent commitments. The required investment is US$2,026 million for education and human and social development, US$1,999.5 million for environment and land use planning, US$658.3 million for economy and employment, US$174 million for energy and US$201 million for rule of law and democracy. Components with a stated location include the Cap-Haïtien and Ouanaminthe corridor, the northern periphery of Port-au-Prince, the rebuilding of downtown Port-au-Prince and its administrative city, and urban and tourism development at Jacmel, on the Aquin and Côtes-de-Fer axis and on Île-à-Vache. The rule of law chapter records four administrative centers already built (Cap-Haïtien, Hinche, Jérémie and Les Cayes) and five to be completed, within a planned network of 41 centers, one per arrondissement. The last chapter describes the planned information system for planning, management and monitoring, built around a database on major works (BDGC) and dynamic mapping.
