- SPEAKERS
Haiti stands at a crossroads, facing profound challenges that threaten its stability and future. However, a coordinated, multi-sectoral approach focusing on governance reform, security stabilization, economic recovery, and infrastructure rebuilding can pave the way for long-term development.
By prioritizing these, Haiti can transition from crisis to stability and build a future of opportunity and dignity for its people. The country’s fragile political landscape, deteriorating security, economic contraction, and humanitarian crisis demand urgent and sustained interventions to break the cycle of fragility.
This staging of the Ask World Bank Caribbean Webinar Series will review the pressing challenges Haiti faces, the negative impacts of continued inaction, and the proposed comprehensive solutions necessary for recovery and sustainable growth.
