Jun 25, 2013

WASHINGTON, CMC – The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) says it is providing a US$35.5 million grant to Haiti for a programme to expand and improve drinking water services in the capital of the French-speaking Caribbean Community (CARICOM) country.
It said the grant will support the second phase of a programme launched in 2010 with support from the IDB and the Spanish Fund for Cooperation in Water and Sanitation in Latin American and the Caribbean (FECASALC).
At least 70 per cent of the three million people in the metropolitan region consume water provided by CTE-RMPP, the capital area’s utility.
