3.1.1.ANNEXE FINANCE STRATEGY OF CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION OPTIONS HAITI
11 octobre 2022
Access to finance remains a challenge to the implementation of climate change adaptation actions throughout developing countries. As a small island developing state (SIDS), Haiti is particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and faces specific capacity constraints and circumstances. It is expected to need to mobilize significant international technical and financial resources to address climate change and its impacts. These resources will come in a variety of forms and sources: financial and non-financial; public and private; and national and international.
Haiti’s National Adaptation Plan (NAP) highlights that the implementation of the adaptation measures presented will “depend on funding, policy, and other opportunities opening up” during the NAP implementation period. Furthermore, the NAP indicates that “the execution of most actions included in the NAP relies on the assumption that further to national budgetary efforts that are commensurate with national circumstances, the level of international support that Haiti has received for development and climate change projects and programmes will be maintained and that additional climate finance for adaptation in the prioritized sector will be attracted, for example, through the Green Climate Fund (GCF), Adaptation Fund, and multilateral and bilateral arrangements”.
