Haiti Humanitarian Emergency

Political instability, gang violence and the impact of the 7.2 magnitude earthquake in 2021 have escalated the complex humanitarian crisis in Haiti. Access to social services is compromised and risks of gender-based violence (GBV) heightened. UNFPA strengthens capacity at health facilities so that women and adolescent girls can access sexual and reproductive health services, and supports survivors of GBV.

UNFPA Humanitarian Thematic Fund 2020 Annual Report
ct_publications
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;">The Humanitarian Thematic Fund (HTF), a co-financing mechanism, was launched in late 2018 to provide flexible, multi- year funding, including greater opportunities for &ldquo;bridge&rdquo; funding while awaiting dedicated donor co-financing for the increasing number of humanitarian crises across the globe. The HTF is designed to provide timely, strategic and multi-year funding for rapid and ongoing response, for preparedness and for strengthening the humanitarian-development nexus. Through an expedited internal grants mechanism, the HTF provides the opportunity for global, regional and country programmes to access funding not being provided through bilateral funding arrangements, thereby expanding the reach and scope of UNFPA&rsquo;s life-saving humanitarian operations. The HTF is one of UNFPA&rsquo;s most flexible humanitarian funding mechanisms.</span></span></p>
