dc.descriptionHaiti is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change due to its geographic location, low economic development, and limited resources. The country’s geographical location - characterized by its presence on the Atlantic hurricane belt and on a low-lying coastal plain - makes it particularly susceptible to sea- level rises (SLRs), rising temperatures, hurricanes, and heavy rainfalls - all of which are projected to become more frequent and intense due to global warming. Climatic hazards are also exacerbating Haiti’s vulnerability to fragility, conflicts, and violence (FCV), further stressing the need for immediate action. The objective of this Climate and Health Vulnerability Assessment (CHVA) is to assist decision-makers with planning effective adaptation measures to deal with climate related health risks.
