Description:
Haitis southern departments of GrandAnse, Sud, and Nippes have long coastlines and are highly vulnerable to natural disasters, deforestation, soil erosion, and poor agricultural practices. Their already limited resources have been stretched by receiving hundreds of thousands of Haitians displaced from the capital, Port-au-Prince due to the countrys ongoing crisis. However, this region is also home to hundreds of organizations working in agriculture, fishing, tourism, and social sectors such as health, education, housing, water and sanitation, and humanitarian relief. La Fondation Communautaire Hatienne-Espwa (FCH-Espwa), Haitis only place-based community foundation, has been working in the Grand Anse for a decade to advance development designed and built by the community, for the community. With this core funding grant from the IAF, FCH-Espwa will strengthen its organizational and technical capacity to deepen and expand its community foundation model engaging the broad depth of Haitian organizations in southern Haiti in effective, long-term and community-led development.
