The quake, centered about 15 miles southwest of Port-au-Prince, had a magnitude of 7.0. A series of strong aftershocks have followed. The damage is severe and catastrophic. It is estimated that 3 million people, approximately one third of the overall population, have been affected by the earthquake. The Government of Haiti is reporting an estimated 112,000 deaths and 194,000 injured. In the immediate wake of the earthquake, President Preval described conditions in his country as “unimaginable,” and appealed for international assistance. As immediate needs are met and the humanitarian relief operation continues, the government is struggling to restore the institutions needed for it to function, ensure political stability, and address long-term reconstruction and development planning. Prior to the earthquake, the international community was providing extensive development and humanitarian assistance to Haiti. With that assistance, the Haitian government had made significant progress in recent years in many areas of its development strategy. The destruction of Haiti’s nascent infrastructure and other extensive damage caused by the earthquake will set back Haiti’s development significantly. Haiti’s long-term development plans will need to be revised. The sheer scale of the relief effort in Haiti has brought together tremendous capacity and willingness to help.

    Haiti Earthquake: Crisis and Response Maureen Taft-Morales Specialist in Latin American Affairs Rhoda Margesson Specialist in International Humanitarian Policy January 15, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41023 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Haiti Earthquake: Crisis and Response Summary The largest earthquake ever recorded in Haiti devastated parts of the country, including the capital, on January 12, 2010. The quake, centered about 15 miles southwest of Port-au-Prince, had a magnitude of 7.0. A series of strong aftershocks followed. Witnesses are describing the damage as severe and catastrophic. Communication services were cut off by the earthquake, so detailed information has been limited. Initial reports indicate that thousands of buildings collapsed, leaving unknown numbers of people trapped, and tens of thousands of people homeless in the streets. Early estimates of casualties are constantly being updated, but already reach into the hundreds of thousands. According to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, “[o]f Haiti’s 9 million people, initial reports suggest roughly a third may be affected by the disaster.” About 45,000 U.S. citizens live in Haiti, and the Embassy has been asked to help account for about 3,000 of them. Describing conditions in his country as “unimaginable” following the earthquake, President Rene Preval appealed for international assistance. The country’s top priority was to conduct search and rescue operations for survivors. Other priorities included an offshore vessel medical unit and electricity generation capability. The government also requested communications equipment so that government officials can better function and coordinate response efforts.

International cooperation is ever more necessary in meeting these challenges. The NYU Center on International Cooperation (CIC) works to enhance international responses to conflict, insecurity, and scarcity through applied research and direct engagement with multilateral institutions and the wider policy community. CIC’s programs and research activities span the spectrum of conflict, insecurity and scarcity issues. This allows us to see critical inter-connections and highlight the coherence often necessary for effective response. We have a particular concentration on the UN and multilateral responses to conflict.

  • Report of the Secretary-General on the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti
    United Nations S/2010/200 Security Council Distr.: General 22 February 2010 Original: English Report of the Secretary-General on the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti I. Introduction 1. By its resolution 1892 (2009), the Security Council extended the mandate of the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) until 10 October 2010, and requested me to report on its implementation semi-annually and not later than 45 days prior to its expiration. The present report covers major developments since my report of 1 September 2009 (S/2009/439) until 15 April 2010, with a focus on the period since the devastating earthquake of 12 January 2010. The report describes activities undertaken by the Mission in line with its mandate under Security Council resolutions 1542 (2004), 1608 (2005), 1702 (2006), 1743 (2007), 1780 (2007), 1840 (2008), 1892 (2009) and 1908 (2010), and provides recommendations on the future role of the Mission in Haiti. II. Impact of the 12 January earthquake 2. On 12 January 2010, Haiti was hit by a 7.0 magnitude earthquake, particularly affecting the capital, Port-au-Prince; Petit Goâve, Grand Goâve and Léogâne (West Department); the town of Jacmel (South-East Department); and the town of Miragoâne (Nippes Department). According to the Government of Haiti, as a result of the quake, 222,570 people were killed, many thousands were injured or permanently disabled, and 1.5 million were left homeless. On 16 March, the United Nations and partners launched a displacement tracking matrix that identified 460 settlement sites with a total population of 1.17 million internally displaced persons in the Port-au-Prince area alone.
