Haiti - Education : 2 years later, 2.770 professionals have been trained by UNDP

As part of capacity building of the government and the communities, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), two years after the events of January 12, 2010, has contributed to the professionalisation of 2,700 people in areas critical for recovery and development in Haiti : vocational training for all judicial actors (judges, registrars, police officers), training in the building and construction trades (masonry, carpentry, recycling and reuse of debris into building materials etc.), as well as training in the field of disaster risk reduction, such as protection of riverbanks and watersheds, reducing the vulnerability of riverside populations and environmental conservation.

In parallel with these efforts, UNDP has put over 70 national and international experts at the disposal of Haitian Government officials to assist in the recovery and public reforms processes.

More than 20 experts were mobilised to support the presidency in formulating policies in various fields including public administration, judicial reform, environment, finances, health or education.

In the field of major natural risk management, 50 officers were deployed at the central level and in the 10 departments to strengthen coordination mechanisms between the various national, departmental and communal levels, thereby strengthening the communication and alert systems in emergency situations.
