  • Overview of the 2010 Haiti Earthquake
    Overview of the 2010 Haiti Earthquake a) b) Reginald DesRoches, M.EERI, Mary Comerio, M.EERI, c) d) Marc Eberhard, M.EERI, Walter Mooney, M.EERI, a) and Glenn J. Rix, M.EERI The 12 January 2010 Mw 7.0 earthquake in the Republic of Haiti caused an estimated 300,000 deaths, displaced more than a million people, and damaged nearly half of all structures in the epicentral area. We provide an overview of the historical, seismological, geotechnical, structural, lifeline-related, and socioeco- nomic factors that contributed to the catastrophe. We also describe some of the many challenges that must be overcome to enable Haiti to recover from this event. Detailed analyses of these issues are presented in other papers in this volume. [DOI: 10.1193/1.3630129] INTRODUCTION On 12 January 2010, at 4:53 p.m. local time, a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck the Republic of Haiti, with an epicenter located approximately 25 km south and west of the cap- ital city of Port-au-Prince. Near the epicenter of the earthquake, in the city of Le´ogaˆne, it is estimated that 80%–90% of the buildings were critically damaged or destroyed. The metro- politan Port-au-Prince region, which includes the cities of Carrefour, Pe´tion-Ville, Delmas, Tabarre, Cite Soleil, and Kenscoff, was also severely affected. According to the Govern- ment of Haiti, the earthquake left more than 316,000 dead or missing, 300,0001 injured, and over 1.3 million homeless (GOH 2010). According to the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) the earthquake was the most destructive event any country has experienced in modern times when measured in terms of the number of people killed as a percentage of the country’s population (Cavallo et al.

These include a sharp increase in food insecurity resulting from drought and the prolonged effects of “El Nino”, the persistence of cholera and a protection crisis triggered by the forced / voluntary return of thousands of Haitians from the Dominican Republic. The immediate needs of the 60,000 people who remain displaced from the 2010 earthquake cannot be overlooked. Finally, the country has a high exposure to climate hazards and natural disasters coupled with limited national response capacity. Haiti remains a largely fragile environment from a governance and development perspectives with high insecurity, overpopulation, widespread poverty, huge economic inequalit ies, a dysfunctional health system, extremely poor access to safe water and sanitation, limited agricultural production, and high environmental degradation.

Project Context Public Disclosure Copy Country Context With a GDP per capita of US$771 in 2012, Haiti is the poorest country in the Americas. It is also one of the most unequal countries in the world (with a Gini coefficient of 0.59), lagging in social indicators (ranking 161 out of 186 in the 2013 Human Development Index). Over half its population of 10 million live on less than US$1.25 per day, and 78 percent live on less than US$2 per day. The country has been hit by multiple shocks, which have hampered economic growth and development. The repeated hurricanes, which have disproportionately large, negative impacts in Haiti, and the January 2010 earthquake are likely to have further exacerbated vulnerability.

Malaria occurs throughout the country at altitudes below 600 meters. More than 99% of the malaria cases are caused by Plasmodium falciparum and the main vector is Anopheles albimanus. This paper aims to describe the epidemiological prole of malaria in Haiti between 2009 and 2018. Methods We analyzed information on malaria cases reported by both the Health Ministry of Haiti (Ministère de la Santé Publique et de la Population-MSPP) and the World Health Organization (WHO) during the study period. Results Between 2009 and 2018, a total of 232,479 malaria cases were reported by the MSPP. There was an increase in the incidence of malaria in the country in 2010 followed by a decrease in 2011. Due to efforts made by Haiti over the past decade to reduce malaria by 2020, malaria incidence has declined from 60,130 cases in 2010 to 8,978 cases in 2018.

  • The Market for Beans in Sud-Est Department of Haiti
    EMERGENCY MARKET MAPPING AND ANALYSIS: THE MARKET FOR BEANS IN SUD-EST DEPARTMENT OF HAITI microREPORT #164 APRIL 2010 This report was prepared for ACDI/VOCA by Laura Meissner, The SEEP Network, Gerry Delphin and Georges Pierre-Louis, ACDI/VOCA; Tim Schwartz, independent consultant; Karri Goeldner Byrne, IRC; Gary Bonhomme, CROSE; and Molière Peronneau, Save the Children. This report is made possible by the Accelerated Microenterprise Advancement Project (AMAP), funded by USAID. EMERGENCY MARKET MAPPING AND ANALYSIS: THE MARKET FOR BEANS IN SUD-EST DEPARTMENT OF HAITI microREPORT #164 DISCLAIMER The author’s views expressed in this publication do not necessarily reflect the views of the United States Agency for International Development or the United States Government. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report analyzes the beans market system in the Sud-Est (Southeast) department of Haiti in March-April 2010, several months after the January 12 earthquake in Haiti. This market system was selected for its importance as both a source of income and as a staple food in Sud-Est and throughout Haiti. The report finds there are two main constraints in the beans market system: a lack of purchasing power among Sud-Est households and a lack of cash and assets among beans growers, which limits ability to buy bean seeds and may lead to a supply shortage later in the year if not addressed. Additionally, several earthquake-related disruptions to key services and infrastructure, such as transportation and storage, persist. Food aid has increased significantly and may also contribute to decreased demand. Recommended short-term interventions include seed distributions, scaling down food distributions, and cash-based programs to improve buying power of affected households.
