GRAND ANSE, HAITI, REPORT

This report focuses on rural household livelihoods in four Grand Anse communities. It was commissioned by HEKS EPER with support from UMCOR). The actual research was carried out by Socio-Dig. The report is divided into three main parts and an extensive annex. In Part I, we present the data from the baseline survey. In Part II, we present summaries of the three selected value chains and graphic maps of those chains. In Part III we present an overview of the Notab selection process and results (the identification of a network of community leaders, a strategy called NOKLINS). The Annex includes useful additional data on fishing, trees, goats and, very importantly, the six focus groups pertaining to the selected value chains, all fully translated into English and with the commentary organized by topic. Throughout the report we provide textboxes relevant to the findings. These Textboxes are meant to help the reader better understand the significance of the data and the interrelationships between people both within and outside the structure of the household.
