  • Haiti: a Case Study of the International Response and the Efficacy of Nongovernmental Organizations in the Crisis
    HAITI: A CASE STUDY OF THE INTERNATIONAL RESPONSE AND THE EFFICACY OF NONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS IN THE CRISIS by Leslie A. Benton* Glenn T. Ware** I. INTRODUCTION In 1990, a military coup ousted the democratically-elected president of Haiti, Jean- Bertrand Aristide. The United States led the international response to the coup, Operation Uphold Democracy, a multinational military intervention meant to restore the legitimate government of Haiti. The operation enjoyed widespread support on many levels: the United Nations provided the mandate, the Organization of American States (OAS) supported it, and many countries participated in the multinational force and the follow-on United Nations Mission in Haiti (UNMIH). International, regional, and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) worked with the multinational force and later the UNMIH to restore the elected government and to provide humanitarian assistance to the people of Haiti. This article focuses on the latter aspect of the international response–the delivery of humanitarian aid. It closely examines the methods of interorganization coordination,[1] with particular attention given to the interaction among NGOs and the United States military. An examination of that relationship indicates that the infrastructure the military used to coordinate with the NGO community–the Civil Military Operations Center (CMOC)–was critical to the success of the humanitarian mission. Because both the military and the humanitarian community will probably have to work together again in humanitarian assistance operations in response to civil strife, each community must draw on the lessons of past operations to identify problems in coordination and to find solutions to those problems. II. THE STORY A. Haiti’s History: 1462-1970[2] Modern Haitian history began in 1492 when Christopher Columbus landed on Haiti near Cape Haitien on the north coast of Hispaniola.[3] At first, the island was an important colony and the seat of Spanish government in the New World, but Spain’s interest in Hispaniola soon waned.

  • Haiti on the Brink: Assessing US Policy Toward a Country in Crisis
    “Haiti on the Brink: Assessing U.S. Policy Toward a Country in Crisis” Prepared Testimony Before the U.S. House of Representatives’ Committee on Foreign Affairs, Subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere, Civilian Security, and Trade Daniel P. Erikson Managing Director, Blue Star Strategies Senior Fellow, Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement December 10, 2019 I begin my testimony by thanking Chairman Sires, Ranking Member Rooney, and the members of this distinguished committee for the opportunity to testify before you today about the current situation in Haiti – and to offer some ideas on what needs to be done to address the pressing challenges there. It is an honor for me to be here. I look forward to hearing from the committee and my fellow panelists and the subsequent discussion. The testimony that I provide you today is in my personal capacity. The views and opinions are my own, informed by my more than two decades of experience working on Latin American and Caribbean issues, including a longstanding engagement with Haiti that has included more than a dozen trips to the country, most recently in November 2019. However, among the other institutions with which I am affiliated, I would like to also acknowledge the Inter- American Dialogue think-tank, where I worked on Haiti for many years and whose leadership has encouraged my renewed inquiry on the political and economic situation in Haiti. My testimony today will focus on two areas: (1) a review of the current situation in Haiti; and (2) what a forward-leaning and constructive response by the United States and the broader international community should look like in 2020.

  • Haiti Histology-Dave Davis
    Histological / Immunhistochemical Training Cap Haitien, Haiti Feb. 11th to 25th, 2017 By: David Davis Last year, Dr. Vincent GeGennaro and Dr. Corey Wilson, representatives from the Innovating Health International Group, offered me an invitation to help teach and train the histology lab personnel at the Justinian University Hospital (JUH) in Cap Haitien, the second largest city in Haiti. I was asked to help fine tune the existing histology laboratory procedures and to introduce them to immunohistochemical (IHC) staining. Justinian University Hospital (JUH), situated at the base of the mountains in Cap Haitien, first opened its doors as a clinic, in 1890. It is now a 250- bed hospital that serves the 825,000 inhabitants of the Northern sector of Haiti. JUH has residency programs that include medicine, pediatrics, general surgery, OB/GYN, family practice, and schools for nurses and laboratory technicians. The hospital has recently opened a new pathology lab, with the help of the Innovating Health International Organization, which has been working to provide cancer treatment to the region since 2013. Presently, at the JUH Histology Lab, they are using a telepathology system that utilizes stained histology slides to be scanned and uploaded to the web to be sent to pathologists outside the city. The pathologist will interpret the stained slides and provide a diagnosis. The only pathologists in Haiti reside and practice in Port-au-Prince, about 3 to 4 hours away by bus. So, how did I fit into all this? After agreeing, last December, to help out, it took me a couple months to prepare for the trip.

  • WATER RESOURCES ASSESSMENT of HAITI August 1999
    WATER RESOURCES ASSESSMENT OF HAITI August 1999 Haiti Dominican Republic US Army Corps of Engineers Mobile District and Topographic Engineering Center Water Resources Assessment of Haiti Executive Summary Haiti is one of the most densely populated countries in the world and one of the poorest in the Western Hemisphere. The population has already outstripped domestic food production, and it is estimated that the population will be 8 million by the year 2000. One-third of the population lives in the Département de l’Ouest where Port-au-Prince is located. Heavy migration from rural areas to towns and cities occurring over the past decade has adversely affected the distribution of the water supply. Access to water and sanitation facilities is inadequate, contributing to poor living conditions, disease, and a high mortality rate. In 1990 only 39 percent of the 5.9 million residents had adequate access to water and only 24 percent to sanitation. The lack of potable water for basic human needs is one of the most critical problems in the country. Given the rainfall and abundant water resources, there is adequate water to meet the water demands, but proper management to develop and maintain the water supply requirements is lacking. However, the water supply sector is undergoing complete transformation. Although currently there is no comprehensive water policy, progress is being made towards establishing a national water resources management policy. Numerous agencies and non-government organizations (NGO’s) are working to provide water, many of which conduct their missions with little or no coordination with other agencies, which creates duplication of work and inefficient use of resources.

  • A Future for Agriculture, a Future for Haiti Haiti's Way Forward Is Tied to Food Sovereignty and a Renewed Focus on Local Agriculture
    A Future for Agriculture, A Future for Haiti Haiti's way forward is tied to food sovereignty and a renewed focus on local agriculture. by Beverly Bell posted Mar 04, 2010 "We plant but we can’t produce or market. We plant but we have no food to eat. We want agriculture to improve so our country can live and so we peasants can live, too." -Rilo Petit-homme, peasant organizer from St. Marc, Haiti A peasant group meets to discuss post-earthquake strategies for rebuilding agriculture. Photo by Roberto (Bear) Guerra. What would it take to transform Haiti’s economy such that its role in the global economy is no longer that of providing cheap labor for sweatshops? What would it take for hunger to no longer be the norm, for the country no longer to depend on imports and hand-outs, and for Port-au-Prince’s slums no longer to contain 85 percent of the city’s residents? What would it take for the hundreds of thousands left homeless by the earthquake to have a secure life, with income? According to Haitian peasant organizations, at the core of the solutions is a commitment on the part of government to support family agriculture, with policies to make the commitment a reality. Haiti is the only country in the hemisphere that is still majority rural. Estimates of the percentage of Haiti’s citizens who are farmers span from 60.5 percent (UN, 2006) to 80 percent (the figure used by peasant groups). Nevertheless, food imports currently constitute 57 percent of what Haitians consume (World Bank, 2008).
