Full Description

The Disaster Risk Management and Reconstruction Project in Haiti, funded by the World Bank, sought to bolster Haiti's capacity to respond to disasters and enhance the resilience of its critical transport infrastructure. The project included five components: natural hazard risk assessment and analysis, support to disaster preparedness and emergency response, rehabilitation of vulnerable and damaged critical transport infrastructure, emergency response and recovery, and project management and implementation support. Key activities included strengthening the Directorate of Civil Protection (DPC), constructing a multi-purpose center for the DPC, building the capacity of Municipal Civil Protection Committees (CCPCs), rehabilitating roads and bridges, and developing a national disaster risk management plan. The project experienced several restructurings and additional financing to address the impact of Hurricane Matthew and ensure the achievement of project development objectives.
