Report on the 2002 Joint Baseline Survey in the Targeted Areas of the PL480, Title II Programs in Haiti (2003)
Since 1996, the U.S. government, in collaboration with several international nongovernmental organizations, has supported a number of food security projects in Haiti using Public Law 480 (PL480), Title II resources. The second cycle of food security Development Activity Programs (DAPs) (2002–2006) was implemented by four Cooperating Sponsors (CSs): CARE, Catholic Relief Services, Save the Children United States, and World Vision International. All four DAPs were multisectoral, including health, nutrition, agriculture, and education activities. Services were provided to a large portion of the Haitian population living in the Northwest, Central Plateau, and Southern Peninsula regions, as well as the island of Gonaive.
When beginning a new program, Title II CSs must conduct a baseline survey assessing the conditions in target areas. This provides a basis against which progress made by the DAPs toward fulfilling their objectives can be assessed at the end of the project. This report communicates the results from the baseline survey conducted jointly by the four CSs in their targeted areas between May and July 2002.
