The project seeks to improve the economic well-being and reduce the vulnerability of Haitian women and men living in rural areas in Haiti’s Sud department. To achieve this, the project activities include training, outreach and participative research, as well as the introduction of innovative practices, techniques and technologies. The goal is to make production systems for mango, cashew nut and some associated vegetable crop value chains more productive, better adapted to climate change and more resistant to shocks. The project also seeks to improve existing farming, management and natural resource development practices and encourage the adoption of agro-ecological practices with a view to environmental sustainability, economic viability and climate change adaptation. Furthermore, the project is also helping to develop agricultural product processing and preparation systems that meet the quality standards required by the markets. The desired professionalization of the targeted value chains depends in part on the presence and strengthening of associations and private businesses in which women play a key role. The project supports 600 producers, particularly women and young people.

January 2019 – Following the outbreak of violence in Northern Rakhine State in August 2017, more than 735,000 Rohingya crossed from Myanmar into Bangladesh over a period of several months. These refugees joined some 200,000 to 300,000 Rohingya already in Bangladesh following earlier waves of displacement. The speed and scale of the influx has resulted in significant humanitarian needs.

With GAC’s support, ADRA is helping to respond to the immediate needs of existing and newly arrived Rohingya refugees in Jamtoli Camp, Cox’s Bazar, in Bangladesh, including the specific needs of women and children. Project activities include: (1) providing environmentally friendly, age- and gender�sensitive water, sanitation and hygiene promotion; (2) implementing environment-friendly hygienic waste management measures, such as provision of bins and drainage repair; (3) providing gender, age and culturally appropriate hygiene kits, as well as dignity kits for women and girls; (4) providing gender, age and culturally appropriate counselling, and information on health and family planning services; (5) establishing two child-friendly spaces for children and youth, and two women and girls’ safe spaces with protection services; and (6) providing training to Men’s Watch Groups on issues such as gender equality, women’s empowerment, women’s rights, and sexual and gender-based violence.
