Project profile — UNFPA – Humanitarian Sexual and Reproductive Health Assistance in Haiti

December 2023 - During conflicts, natural disasters and other complex emergencies, sexual and reproductive health (SRH) needs must not be overlooked. It is essential to ensure that life-saving interventions related to SRH services and protection from and response to sexual and gender-based violence are provided. With GAC’s support, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Fund is contributing to meeting the safety and sexual and reproductive health needs of vulnerable women and girls in Haiti. Project activities include: (1) ensuring protection from and response to gender-based violence; (2) providing emergency obstetric care, and sexual and reproductive health services; and (3) providing health services, medication, dignity, and reproductive health kits to crisis-affected people.

The expected outcomes of this project include: (1) improved sexual and reproductive health of vulnerable populations; and (2) increased protection from gender-based violence. The expected ultimate outcome is lives saved, suffering alleviated, and human dignity maintained in countries experiencing humanitarian crises or acute food insecurity.
