- Description
- This activity will build on successful prior USAID assistance developing market value chains in the agricultural sector to include other non-agricultural sectors such as tourism and handicrafts. Specifically, whereas USAID has successfully supported the development of the Haitian agricultural export industry for a number of years and has also supported the handicraft sector under a another separate initiative, its support for market value chain development will now be carried out across all sectors where there is the most potential for local, regional and export value-added. The intent is to gain economies of scale and synergy by combining all value chain analysis and strengthening into a single market-oriented activity. The performance-based Contract to be awarded will aim to increase the numbers of Haitians involved in sustainable economic activities and the income derived therefrom. As a result of this activity, USAID expects to see increased incomes, increased trade and investment in selected market chains; increased sustainable livelihood options, and better management of natural resources (particularly soil) by way of increased value of environmentally friendly (non-erosive) products. The MarChE Project is expected to work in tandem to the maximum extent feasible with other ongoing and planned USAID development activities.
