Descripción
Section one of this report opens with a
brief environmental history of Haiti, followed by an
analysis of the current state of environmental conditions,
and closes with an examination of contemporary human and
landscape vulnerabilities to acute and chronic environmental
degradation and extreme climatic events. Section two of the
report provides a brief summary of 15 regional or national
landscape-level land management projects enacted in Haiti
since the middle of the 20th century. Section three
concludes the report with a summary of important themes and
applicable lessons that crosscut the history of
landscape-level management projects in Haiti. Section four
provides a bibliography of important documents related to
the issues examined in this report. This bibliography is
intended to serve as a resource for future researchers,
policy-makers, program administrators, project implementers,
and project beneficiaries working on landscape level land
management projects in Haiti.
