United Nations Development Programme Country: Haiti PROJECT DOCUMENT United Nations Development Programme Country: Haiti PROJECT DOCUMENT Project Title: Increasing resilience of ecosystems and vulnerable communities to CC and anthropic threats through a ridge to reef approach to BD conservation and watershed management ISF Outcome: 2.2: environmental vulnerability reduced and ecological potential developed for the sustainable management of natural and energy resources based on a decentralised territorial approach UNDP Strategic Plan Environment and Sustainable Development Primary Outcome: 3: mechanisms for climate change adaptation are in place Expected CP Outcomes: See ISF outcome Expected CPAP Output (s) 1. Priority watersheds have increased forest cover 2. National policies and plans for environmental and natural resource management integrating a budgeted action plan are validated 3. Climate change adaptation mechanisms are put in place. Executing Entity/Implementing Partner: Ministry of Environment Implementing Entity/Responsible Partners: United Nations Development Programme Brief Description This project will deliver help to reduce the vulnerability of poor people in Haiti to the effects of climate change, while at the same time conserving threatened coastal and marine biodiversity. Investments in climate- proofed and socially-sustainable BD conservation strategies, within the context of the National Protected Areas System (NPAS), will enable coastal and marine ecosystems to continue to generate Ecosystem-Based Adaptation (EBA) services; while additional investment of adaptation funds in the watersheds which drain into these ecosystems will serve to maximize BD benefits and ecosystem functions, as well as generating EBA benefits for the populations living in the watersheds themselves. Building on the achievements of GEF projects 3616 in relation to PAs and 3733 in relation to CCA, the project will ensure sustainability by strengthening the technical and logistical capacities of the Ministry of Environment at central and local levels, and will also partner with a number of major co-financed rural development projects of the Ministry of Agriculture in order to ensure efficient delivery of CCA benefits. This will be complemented at local level by involvement and strengthening of community-based organisations in relation to PA and watershed management, and partnership with private development organisations with access to technical and financial resources to complement those of the Government. 1 Table of Contents List of abbreviations ................................................................................................................................... 5 SECTION I: ELABORATION OF THE NARRATIVE .................................................................... 8 Conceptual and analytical framework ...................................................................................................... 8 PART I.

Summary Since March 2011, the Government of Norway has been funding the Project "Reducing Population and Infrastructure Vulnerability in the Southern Department”, whose objective is to reduce the socio- economic and environmental risks associated with the natural hazards affecting the populations and infrastructure in the watersheds of the Southern Department. These risks are increasing because of the mismanagement of the natural resources and the lack of land planning. The project was divided into two phases: Phase 1, which took place between March 2011 and August 2012 as part of a joint program between UNDP and FAO, funded through the Haiti Reconstruction Fund (HRF) and Phase 2, currently implemented, which began in October 2012 and will end in December 2014.

UNHCR / J. BJÖRGVINSSON Haiti To address the growing needs of people in Haiti displaced by January’s devastating earthquake, UNHCR is launching an expanded operation’s plan and budget. UNHCR is supporting the protection cluster in Haiti and is leading the ‘mirror’ protection cluster in the Dominican Republic. The expanded programme will extend the work of the protection cluster and provide material support to extremely vulnerable individuals. Community-based quick impact projects will support the needs of affected people hosted by friends and relatives in Port-au-Prince and in other areas.

  • Molecular Species Delimitation and Biogeography of Canadian Marine Planktonic Crustaceans
    Molecular Species Delimitation and Biogeography of Canadian Marine Planktonic Crustaceans by Robert George Young A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Robert George Young, March, 2016 ABSTRACT MOLECULAR SPECIES DELIMITATION AND BIOGEOGRAPHY OF CANADIAN MARINE PLANKTONIC CRUSTACEANS Robert George Young Advisors: University of Guelph, 2016 Dr. Sarah Adamowicz Dr. Cathryn Abbott Zooplankton are a major component of the marine environment in both diversity and biomass and are a crucial source of nutrients for organisms at higher trophic levels. Unfortunately, marine zooplankton biodiversity is not well known because of difficult morphological identifications and lack of taxonomic experts for many groups. In addition, the large taxonomic diversity present in plankton and low sampling coverage pose challenges in obtaining a better understanding of true zooplankton diversity. Molecular identification tools, like DNA barcoding, have been successfully used to identify marine planktonic specimens to a species. However, the behaviour of methods for specimen identification and species delimitation remain untested for taxonomically diverse and widely-distributed marine zooplanktonic groups. Using Canadian marine planktonic crustacean collections, I generated a multi-gene data set including COI-5P and 18S-V4 molecular markers of morphologically-identified Copepoda and Thecostraca (Multicrustacea: Hexanauplia) species. I used this data set to assess generalities in the genetic divergence patterns and to determine if a barcode gap exists separating interspecific and intraspecific molecular divergences, which can reliably delimit specimens into species. I then used this information to evaluate the North Pacific, Arctic, and North Atlantic biogeography of marine Calanoida (Hexanauplia: Copepoda) plankton.
