Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to uncover Haiti’s existing transport infrastructure, the challenges
that it has endured in the disaster response process, the strategies for disaster response that
have been put in place, and the plans for transportation and resilience in the face of natural
disasters. The case study design was adopted for the research, with the data obtained from
official documentation and archival records. The analysis of the data reveals that
transportation diversity is limited in most locations, the inaccessibility of some areas by road
remains an obstacle to disaster response, and that Haitian sectoral laws, along with the
activities of international organizations, have enhanced the government’s capacity for natural
disaster response. Recommendations for practice are presented in light of these findings.
