About
OverviewThe Joint Programme’s main objective was to reduce crises and violence while promoting stability to allow for progress towards the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals, and was implemented in five secondary cities (Les Cayes, Ouanaminthe, Port-de-Paix, Saint Marc and Gonaives) and in some areas of Port-au-Prince affected by the earthquake of January 2010. Specifically, the JP advocatedfor a two-pronged approach based on prevention and reduction of violence through (1) work atthe community level and the establishment of mechanisms for analysis, dialogue and alternatives to violence and; (2) work at the national level to strengthen capacity for data collection, adequate analysis and policy response. Outcome 1 aimed to strengthen local governance capacity to prevent and reduce violence, including gender-based violence in five selected communities. The JP supported the development and implementation of multidimensional community plans for the reduction of violence, which were based on the victimization surveys conducted by the National Observatory of violence and crime program. Four out of the five plans developed were validated by the Mayor and Town Councils. Also, the JP’s activities supported efforts to revitalize Haiti's economy, which in turn contributes to the stabilization of vulnerable communities. Thus, more than 63,000 people, 40% of them women, were engaged in over 30 infrastructure projectssupported by the JP after the 2010 earthquake. Access to employment and economic opportunities for young people was a priority of the JP, this was done through training of youth from vulnerable neighborhoods, enabling them to complete internships in local businesses and by boosting social commitment of entrepreneurs to develop their community. In addition, the programme supported microentrepreneurs, including 478 women, with both training and technical support. Outcome two’s focus on increased access to basic services for victims of gender based violence was achieved through training of health personnel and the provision to hospitals and health centers to improve services, together with community mobilization, training and awareness raising activities in vulnerable communities. As a result, a key contribution of the program was more equitable access to basic social services through the strengthening of institutional capacity. Particular attention was paid to the most vulnerable groups and to ensure gender equality. Outcome three, support to the National Observatory on Violence and Crime, was revised after its destruction during the 2010 earthquake. In-depth technical support and capacity building was provided with some key results such as the creation of a platform for recording official data homicides and accidents (HNP), a statistical bulletin of the HNP and the Observatory on crime rates in the country and technical assistance for the production of a study on domestic violence.
