10/03/2024 09:01:55
Ahmed Hussen, Minister of International Development, reiterated Canada's commitment to supporting the Caribbean region, including 30 million for two projects in Haiti.
- $15 million will be allocated to the "Green Corridor in the Baradères-Cayemites protected area" project in Haiti, which will support climate change adaptation and biodiversity conservation while contributing to food security and sustainable economic opportunities for vulnerable people. Implemented by Viridis Terra International and the Centre for International Studies and Cooperation, the project contributes to Canada’s international climate finance commitment and meets the goals of the Global Biodiversity Framework presented at COP15 in Montréal.
- $15 million will be allocated to the "Investing in midwives, ensuring the right to access sexual health services" project in Haiti, implemented by the United Nations Population Fund, which aims to improve and save the lives of marginalized women and girls by increasing access to maternal and child healthcare, sexual and reproductive health services, and gender-based violence care.
