Project Description
Rural women and farmers in the Artibonite department depend on the health of the local ecosystem for food security and quality of life. Platfòm Inite Òganizasyon Dezam (PLAIOD) provides technical assistance and facilitates conservation and reforestation activities to improve the health of Mome August watershed. At the IAF, we support community-led solutions to expand economic opportunity in Haiti. PLAIOD’s activities promote smallholder agriculture to enhance food security and ensure meaningful opportunities for communities to thrive.
