Improving Gender Equality, Waste Management and Clean Energy
Published title: Improving Gender Equality, Waste Management and Clean Energy in Haiti
US$ millions unless stated. Haitian fiscal year, October to September. FY2026-27 began October 1, 2026.
Description
The project aims to improve the well-being of the population of the commune of Gonaïves in Haiti. The project aims to incorporate waste management by allowing the sale of carbon credits and the production of green energy through the recovery of biogas produced by decomposing waste. Ultimately, this allows waste management operations to be self-funded. Project activities include: (1) completing technical studies and installing the first biomethanation plant; (2) closing the current informal landfill site and reintegrating disadvantaged people and women into society through recycling and waste-collection activities; (3) establishing a contract for the sale of electricity and carbon credits; (4) implementing an extensive program to raise awareness about sanitation and the sound management of waste and the environment; (5)

implementing vocational training in waste collection and landfill management; and (6) establishing a team of waste collection and recycling operators. Biothermica works in partnership with BioEnergie Haïti and Terres des Jeunes Internationales to implement waste management activities and advocacy and awareness campaigns. It also planned for the project to call on external investors to fund the construction of the biocells and alternative energy sources to ensure long-term viability.
