Climate Change Resilience: The case of Haiti ; Adaptation aux changements climatiques : Le cas d’Haïti
handle: 10546/314540
Haiti has long faced severe natural and human-created hazards due to its location in the Caribbean hurricane zone and to widespread deforestation. Hazards including storms, floods, and droughts have highly destructive impacts on buildings, land, water, livestock, and people in Haiti. The poorest Haitians, including low-income women, children, and elderly people, are especially vulnerable. The prospects for building Haiti's resilience to climate change are closely tied to post-earthquake reconstruction. As Haiti prepares for more disasters and rebuilds significant parts of its infrastructure, there is a real opportunity to integrate climate resilience into these efforts. This report analyses Haiti's adaptive capacity, adaptation options, and finance and governance issues. It makes recommendations on resilience building and identifies climate-change adaptation needs and opportunities. ; Haïti a subi plusieurs importantes catastrophes naturelles et provoquées ces dernières années, du fait de sa localisation dans la zone cyclonique des Caraïbes et d’un déboisement accéléré. Ces catastrophes (tempêtes, inondations, sécheresses) ont des effets dévastateurs sur les personnes, les constructions, les terres, l’eau et le bétail en Haïti. Les Haïtiens les plus pauvres, dont les femmes, les enfants et les personnes âgées, sont particulièrement vulnérables. Les perspectives pour l’adaptation au changement climatique en Haïti sont aujourd’hui intimement liées aux projets de reconstruction post-séisme. Le pays étant désormais soucieux d’investir dans la préparation aux catastrophes et la reconstruction de ses infrastructures, il est essentiel de saisir cette occasion pour intégrer l’adaptation au changement climatique aux efforts de reconstruction. Ce rapport analyse la capacité d’adaptation d’Haïti, les options d’adaptation et les problèmes de financement et de gouvernance. Il présente des recommandations relatives à la construction de la résilience et identifie des besoins et des opportunités d’adaptation face au changement ...
