With the inauguration of its President in February 2006, Haiti’s nascent government faces a variety of migration issues which impact critically upon stability and economic recovery. These include destabilizing outward migration flows induced by violence, poverty and natural disasters, irregular migration including human trafficking and smuggling, poor labour migration management capacity and the untapped development potential of remittances and the Diaspora.
In a bid to address the most urgent migration issues, IOM has demonstrated tangible results in the stabilization of violent neighbourhoods and disaster-prone areas, support for free and fair elections, the formulation of migration management recommendations, and the return and reintegration of trafficked child domestic labourers. In tandem with the UNCT Transitional Appeal, IOM seeks to sustain quick impact initiatives in support of the government’s programme d’apaisement social, while augmenting its mid-term objectives for poverty reduction.
IOM aims to mitigate the destabilizing effects of violence and disaster-induced outward migration flows. Through the PREPEP programme (a continuation of the Haiti Transition Initiative initiated in 2004) IOM helps to stabilize volatile neighborhoods in six urban centers across Haiti by generating short-term employment and fostering opportunities for dialogue between the government and the general population around the rehabilitation of small infrastructure and socio-cultural activities. As a process-oriented initiative, PREPEP seeks to cultivate inclusive community and government interaction towards the provision of strong, sustainable, and responsive government services.
In seeking to cultivate a critical mass of support for a peaceful transition among the marginalized communities of Cité Soleil – one of the most volatile neighborhoods of Haiti – other IOM projects similarly work to rehabilitate priority road sections and to improve sanitation and hygiene at primary public schools. In a bid to protect thousands of shantytown residents in the capital from landslides, flooding, internal displacement and loss of life, IOM is constructing life-saving retention walls along ravines and severely deforested mountainsides. In response to the 2004 floods in the isolated rural region of Fonds Verrettes, IOM has engaged in housing reconstruction, community shelter development and improvements to the potable water distribution system.

IOM works to help ensure the orderly and humane management of migration, to promote international cooperation on migration issues, to assist in the search for practical solutions to migration problems and to provide humanitarian assistance to migrants in need, including refugees and internally displaced people.
The IOM Constitution recognizes the link between migration and economic, social and cultural development, as well as to the right of freedom of movement.
