E/ICEF/2023/P/L.6: UNICEF Country Programme Document for Haiti, 2023-2027

UNICEF's country programme document for Haiti covering March 2023 to December 2027, dated 3 January 2023 for the Executive Board's first regular session of February 2023. It proposes an indicative budget of 26,735,000 dollars from regular resources and 156,088,000 dollars in other resources. The programme rationale sets out a decade of losses: two major earthquakes, four hurricanes, a cholera epidemic and the COVID-19 pandemic, the assassination of the President in 2021, and continuing armed and civil unrest with gangs expanding control over regions and infrastructure, causing prolonged service shutdowns, the recruitment and abuse of children by armed groups, and emigration that ends in return.

A country programme document is the instrument by which UNICEF puts a multi-year programme of cooperation to its Executive Board. It sets out the situation of children, the results the programme will pursue with the government, the programme components and their rationale, the partnerships and risks, and an indicative budget split between regular resources, which are assured, and other resources, which depend on specific-purpose contributions.
