The impact of humanitarian aid indicted

What is the impact of humanitarian aid on the beneficiaries? This is the question that a joint team of the State University of Haiti and Tulane University (USA) promises to answer.
Researchers from both institutions are supported by students walk the work since October 2010 in the country to determine the impact of humanitarian aid for the victims of the earthquake of January 12. The first workshop of this 18-month project funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation-was held this Thursday at Le Plaza. The methodology of the project and the results already obtained have been presented to the participants came primarily from the humanitarian (international NGOs).
According to the plan developed, four workshops, the vice-rector for academic affairs at UEH Laleau Wilson, to be held under the project UEH / Tulane University on the impact of humanitarian aid. For each stage of the project, the university will provide a set of objectives that will enable them to answer the original question. At the end of the process, researchers should be able to say whether humanitarian aid provided to the country after the terrible disaster of January 12, 2010, has allowed beneficiaries to become more dependent or independent.
500 documents carried on the work of NGOs have been reviewed during the first phase of the project funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. "None of the evaluations produced on humanitarian aid into the country after the earthquake has focused on the beneficiaries," revealed Ky Luu, Executive Director of Tulane University's disaster resilience leadership academy. The project UEH / Tulane University, he argued, takes into account not only the donors but also the beneficiaries. In his opinion, it does not list the amount of aid granted to the country, we also see the impact of aid on people and institutions.
Another observation Ky Luu: local resources are not valued enough in projects postséisme. Haitian institutions, he noted, are hardly involved in ongoing projects. That approach, he warned, will not help rebuild Haiti's institutions. Researchers from both universities must formulate, under the current project proposals to relevant stakeholders to better support Haiti after the earthquake of January 12, 2010.
Besides the project UEH / Tulane University, several other institutions evaluate the work of NGOs in the country. An American NGO, Disaster Accountability Project, was published in early January a report denouncing the opaque management of non-governmental organizations managing fund for victims of the earthquake of January 12, 2010.
Very little information, the report noted, are available on how NGOs have spent millions of dollars raised in the U.S. after January 12. Of 196 selected NGOs, only 38 agreed to fill out the form that has been submitted. "However, we found that only 8 of 196 organizations actually give regular updates on their site," stated Ben Smillowitz, Executive Director of Disaster Accountability Project.
Even the Department of Planning, responsible for regulating the work of NGOs, complained of their lack of transparency. For fiscal year 2008-2009, only 56 NGOs had submitted their report to the Ministry of Planning. They were only 19 to meet this legal requirement for fiscal year 2009-2010. "Yet, NGOs submit regular reports to donors," complained Jerry Maxime Unit for Coordination of NGOs of the Ministry of Planning at a conference on the sidelines of the first anniversary of the earthquake. An official of the Ministry of Planning, reported on some 495 NGO duly registered with the Ministry while we're talking about several thousands operating throughout the country.
Researchers at the university Tulaine UEH and give themselves the task of clearing up gray areas that other research reports on the work of NGOs were not affected.
