Job Training and Life Skills

"Haiti has 9.8 million people, and at least half were unemployed even before the earthquake. If we focused our efforts on the singular task of getting them jobs — even if we did nothing else — Haiti's reconstruction could be a success.” — Paul Farmer, Partners In Health’s founder and UN Deputy Special Envoy to Haiti, Foreign Policy

If we are to encourage economic growth and opportunity in Haiti, we must both create jobs and ensure that local businesses have access to a skilled workforce. The training and employment of individual Haitians is essential.
