USAID Policies in Haiti US Programs in Haiti are obstructing equitable development
and decreasing food security
USAID's plan for Haiti (and many other poor countries) is topush farmers out of subsistence agriculture as soon aspossible
USAID policies seek to make optimum use of Haiti's'comparative advantage' i.e., its abundance of cheap labor
World Bank: the Haitian rural majority has only twopossibilities: work in the industrial sector, or emigrate

US Government Policies
The U.S.-based NGOs that carry out most USAIDprograms do not adequately consult or coordinate withlocal, regional and national Haitian governmentauthorities.
USAID programs do not respond to Haiti's statedpriority of revitalizing national agricultural production;only 4.3 percent of the USAID's four-year US$ 443million aid package is destined for agriculturaldevelopment.
Drastically reduced tariffs on
imported food which the US
has insisted upon as a conditionfor aid are flooding Haiti with
cheap food, undercutting prices
for locally grown products.

US-funded Food Aid & Jobs-creation Programs
US food aid depresses local prices for basic grains, reducing
incentives for Haitian farmers to grow them.
Food aid shifts consumption patterns away from locally produced
goods in favor of imported goods.
Private aid agencies
consistently operated jobs-
creation programs in rural
areas at key planting andharvesting times, pulling
people out of their fields with
the lure of relatively high
short-term wages.

Dependency and DisconnectionUSAID-funded programs stifle local initiative with short-term offers of free food and employment, creating
cycles of dependency among Haitian farmers
USAID agencies frequently fail to consult or work with local community organizations; instead they either
directly implement projects themselves or work closely with discredited local elites.

Reconstruction Commission 26 member body that decides where to spend
money donated to Haitis reconstruction, apartnership between the Internationalcommunity and the Haitian government
Works with organizations like the World Bank,who In May 2010 announced that it hadcanceled Haitis debt of $36 million. Haiti isheavily reliant on foreign aid
Co chairman is Bill Clinton. There are 12members of the board, but most decisions aremade by the executive committee that includesClinton and Haitian PM Jean-Max Bellerive.
There are 12 Haitians members in thecommission who complain:
executives are not adequately doing job:

We don't know who has given money to NGO's (nongovernmentalorganizations) and how much money have they given. ... At themoment, we can't do any coordination or have any coherent policiesfor giving to the population. - Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive

Analysis of USAID Policy in Haiti We must analyze USAID in such areas as:
governmental, NGO structure, and coordination,USAID and NGO actions, the results, and overall
earthquake disaster relief.
Governmental: The bulk of USAID funding goestowards governance, primarily into police training.
Food policies have focused on importing food to Haiti,versus assisting agriculture production.
The US government also puts low tariffs on food
imports into Haiti. Many USAID as well as multi national corporations
offer short-term, higher waged jobs, i.e. textiles.
During the earthquake much of the relief camethrough the Department of Defense.
NGOs: The majority of the organizations assisting indevelopment and re-construction in Haiti, receive thebulk of their funding through USAID, i.e. CARE, andPADF.
Many NGOs like these have more specific agendas, butmust comply with USAID objectives. Although manyNGOs are under the budgetary umbrella of USAID,they are not coordinated under USAID.
7/28/2019 USAID Presentation
13/16
Effects of USAID USAIDs policy focus on importing food, has depressed the local markets ability to compete with local
agriculture since they cannot beat the price the US offers. This leaves more of a demand on import goods, withless incentive for domestic agriculture.
Short-term job creation programs have the ability to employ many, but cannot sustain their continual
employment. These programs give incentive away from their communities, perpetuating the dependency onaid for those left behind.
Offering these jobs also adds to the idea that in order to succeed Haiti must participate in the world market.This is unrealistic when domestic issues are so severe.
After the earthquake there wasnt a lack of assistance, but a lack of framework, and coordination. Relief wascentered in cities causing overcrowding. Many reconstruction projects have been started that were poorlyorganized and implemented, causing more chaos.
7/28/2019 USAID Presentation
14/16
Evaluation of USAID in Haiti The policy of importing food to Haiti is detrimental to its development.
Environmental, and agricultural issues are ignored. There is little incentive for
farmers when their main competition (USAID) provides cheaper food. Thecombination of these factors creates a dependency on food from USAID.
Short-term employment opportunities take away from local incentives for jobs inthe community i.e. farming. Once again the abandonment of local issues for theseshorter jobs creates a dependency on USAID.
Disaster reliefs still focuses more of its budget on rubble clearing and clean upthan issues such as health and reconstruction. The DoDs presence alsocontributed to a stronger military presence after the earthquake, causing Haiti toseem more like a police state.
The failure of most NGOs to work with local communities while an elite few within
the NGOs initiate their own projects, ignoring the needs of Haitian communities.Not allowing Haitians to fully participate in reconstruction and growth isdebilitating to Haitis development.
The lack of consolidation or coordination among NGOs under USAID cause issuessuch as: competition for funding/ support, under or over action in key areas, a lackof structured leadership, and an absence of Haitian participation in the process.
7/28/2019 USAID Presentation
15/16
Recommendations USAID needs to put the power back in the hands of
Haitian farmers in order to create a stabilized agricultural
industry. Assisting more in this process while slowly decreasing the
amount of imports as food production increases, andlocal food costs decrease.
US policies should decrease the emphasis on short-termjob creation, while focusing more on long-term localprojects.
In focusing on local job creation and stability there needsto be less focus on personal gain, and more oncommunity strengthening, so that Haitians havesomething to build more equity off of in the future.
USAID needs plan more around the voiced needs of theHaitians versus implementing their own projects. Indoing so more work can be done by those in need.
NGOs need a more standard framework in informationsharing, operations and cohesive leadership.
In terms of disaster relief US policy should focus less onthe military presence, and organize a more cohesiverelief strategy.
