BRAC is committed to improving the lives of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged people in Haiti, empowering women and girls, and fostering a bottom-up approach to economic development through sustainable financial services and social enterprise development. Since 2005, BRAC has been providing technical assistance to Fonkoze, Haiti’s largest microfinance organization, to replicate its ultra poor program. Drawing on its own experience of starting up in post-conflict and post-disaster environments, BRAC aims at a multifaceted, bottom-up intervention in Haiti to address immediate needs and develop long-term programs to rebuild economic activity and livelihoods. BRAC is on its way to building sustainable institutions in Haiti that generate employment opportunities for the poor and enable them to contribute to their own recovery and development.
