Innovative perspectives to Sustainably Address Challenges Related to Food Security, Biodiversity and Deforestation in Northwestern Haiti

Deforestation and poor soil quality make it difficult for farmers in Haiti's North West department to produce sufficient food or earn enough income to support their families.

The IAF supports community-led solutions to expand economic opportunities through sustainable agriculture and micro-enterprise development.

Our grantee Organisation pour la Promotion de l'Agroforesterie (OPA) is improving food security and protecting local natural resources by applying agroforestry techniques diversifying farmers' agricultural activities increasing livestock production and providing them with necessary supplies and materials.

OPA is also strengthening small businesses by increasing their access to credit.

These investments are part of the IAF's sustainable agriculture initiative and increase farmers? food security and incomes.
