Haiti: The Challenges of Poverty Reduction, Volume I (Haitian Creole edition, Report No. 17242-HA)
- A Bank poverty assessment issued in Haitian Creole, which is unusual enough to be part of the document's significance.
- Structured across living conditions, urban poverty, migration, growth, the public sector, human capital and social protection.
- A title-word comparison against the English title scores near zero, which is why citation matching missed this holding.
- The text is OCR of a printed Creole original, so figures taken from it should be verified against the English or French edition.
The Haitian Creole edition of the World Bank's 1998 poverty assessment for Haiti, Report No. 17242-HA, Volume I, dated August 1998. It examines the living conditions of the poor, urban poverty, migration, the relationship between growth and poverty reduction, the role of the public sector, investment in people, and transfers and social protection. Publishing a Bank poverty assessment in Creole rather than only French or English is itself unusual and makes this edition worth holding in its own right. Note the text is OCR of a printed Creole original, so extraction quality is uneven.
