Implementation Completion and Results Report - Emergency School Reconstruction Project

The Implementation Completion and Results Report evaluates the Haiti Emergency School Reconstruction Project, funded by the World Bank. The project's objective was to assist the Republic of Haiti in restoring and improving access to basic education in selected destroyed and/or heavily damaged public primary schools. Key activities included rebuilding or rehabilitating schools to higher safety standards, retrofitting schools as temporary emergency shelters, developing training modules on school safety, and creating a National Action Plan for Safe Schools (NAPSS). The project faced challenges due to the 2010 earthquake, which increased construction costs and delayed implementation. Despite these challenges, the project successfully rebuilt 11 schools and achieved most of its key indicators, although some design and construction flaws were identified post-completion.
