Foreign Assistance: Any Further Aid to Haitian Justice System Should be Linked to Performance-Related Conditions

Abstract

At your request, we examined the U.S. assistance provided to Haiti for improving its justice system, including its police and judicial sector, since 1995. Specifically, we identified (1) the results of this assistance and any major problems that continue to affect justice institutions and (2) the factors that have affected the success of the assistance. We summarized the U.S. assistance provided to the Haitian police and to the judicial sector in appendixes I and II. In these appendixes, we also include information on the other donors' assistance to these justice institutions. We describe the organization of the Haitian justice system in appendix III.
