Haiti: stabilization and reconstruction after the quake
Latin America/Caribbean report n°32 – 31 March 2010:
This paper calls the international community to build Haiti back better through a joint commitment to reconstruction over at least a decade and a first round of pledges that match the magnitude of the past disaster and of the task ahead. It advocates for an integrated, long-term reconstruction strategy based on a very broad political and social consensus that also takes into account a number of pressing political and stabilisation issues.
It gives some recommendations regarding: (i) immediate emergency relief; (ii) post-disaster political challenges; (iii) post-disaster stabilisation challenges; (iv) medium- to long-term reconstruction challenges; and (v) the UN Stabilisation Mission (MINUSTAH)’s role in stabilisation and reconstruction.
