The additional assistance agreement of 24.4 million dollars, signed between the United States Government, via the United States Agency for International Development (USAID - Haiti) and the Haitian Government, via the Ministry of Planning will make it possible to improve development in Haiti in the sectors of health, education, agriculture and governance, among others.

U.S. Ambassador to Haiti Michele Sison declared "USAID/Haiti works to improve health and education outcomes, advance economic and food security, and strengthen the independence and accountability of Haitian government institutions. To date, USAID has also provided $13.2 million to support Haiti's COVID 19 response efforts, including infection prevention, case management, improved water and sanitation and more through local partner organizations."

This latest agreement brings USAID's total assistance to Haiti to more than $1.8 billion since 2011.
