Under the project "Strengthening Climate Change Resilience and Disaster Risk Reduction in Agriculture to Improve Food Security in Haiti after the Earthquake", funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF); The Ministries of Environment, Agriculture and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) inform that a validation workshop on the updated National Adaptation Action Plan ( PANA) on climate change, will be organized Tuesday, June 20, 2017, at the Hotel Montana, from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm.

This workshop, which will involve officials from both Ministries, technical partners and other relevant stakeholders, aims to:

Present the analysis of the implementation of the PANA, initially developed by the Haitian Government in 2006;

Finalize the PANA revision process launched in October 2016, based on a participatory approach involving all sectors, in particular in the agricultural, environmental and economic fields, according to the priorities defined in the national strategic documents and the international commitments made by Haiti.

Climate change is one of the major challenges for the socio-economic development of the country. For this reason, the Government of Haiti, with the technical assistance of FAO, found it necessary to revise the National Adaptation Plan of Action (PANA).
