The Infrastructure and Institutions Emergency Recovery Project (IIERP) was designed to support Haiti's early and sustainable recovery from the devastating 2010 earthquake. The project focused on rebuilding key institutions, such as the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF), and rehabilitating critical infrastructure, including roads and bridges. It also aimed to strengthen crisis governance and reconstruction planning. The project underwent several restructurings and received additional financing to scale up activities and adapt to evolving needs, including subsequent natural disasters. While the project achieved significant results in restoring government functions and repairing infrastructure, it faced challenges related to political instability, limited capacity, and coordination issues, which affected its overall efficiency.
