The objective of this project is to give access to quality basic education adapted to the post-earthquake situation for children of primary level of Labrousse in Haiti. The main activities include: (i) reconstruction and rehabilitation of five schools and 21 classrooms which were destroyed during the earthquake, and the rehabilitation of three classrooms at EFACAP (École fondamentale d'application - Centre d'appui pédagogique), including the installation of latrines et water systems; (ii) strengthening of the education workers in 21 schools as well as providing psychosocial and pedagogical support to the EFACAP; and (iii) strengthening school councils in order to improve the quality of education. The expected intermediate outcomes for this project include: (i) six primary schools in the Labrousse region rehabilitated or rebuilt, ensuring an equitable access to schooling for both girls and boys, while respecting environmental standards; and (ii) strengthened capacities of local actors in educational field, particularly women, in the 21 schools under the jurisdiction of the local partner.
