The new 4-year plan for the period 2025-2029 aims to strengthen the resilience of the most vulnerable, focusing on three key areas:
• Improving economic governance and creating employment opportunities
• Strengthening institutions to ensure the provision of basic services
• Preserving human capital to better cope with natural disasters and economic shocks. According to Alfred Metellus, Minister of Economy and Finance, Haiti must imperatively stabilize its institutions and strengthen its state capacities in the short term, while preparing long-term structural reforms. « *This new partnership framework must help the country achieve these objectives* », he affirmed. It remains to be seen whether these funds will actually be used to strengthen the country's foundations or if they will be absorbed by the inefficiencies of the system.
