Description
On April 23, 2020, at the request of the Government of Haiti (GoH), the World Bank (WB) activated the Continency Emergency Response Component (CERC) of the Resilient Productive Landscapes (RPL) Project (P162908), allowing a reallocation of US $9.90 million to address the compounding and negative impacts of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on the agricultural sector and food security in Haiti, which was already affected by severe climatic challenges. An Additional Financing (AF) in the amount of US$7.75 million equivalent is proposed as a partial replenishment of the financing gap of the RPL Project. The AF would formalize the allocation of resources to the RPL Project, and thus facilitate the fuller implementation of Components 1, 2, and 3. The parent project was approved on March 1, 2018 and became effective on July 10, 2018. Under the AF, the Project Development Objectives (PDOs), the implementation arrangements, safeguards category, and safeguards policies remain unchanged.
