<p>While the UK does not have a bilateral development programme in Haiti, we support
Haiti through our contributions to agencies such as the United Nations, European Union
and the World Bank Group who have a strong presence on the ground. Our contributions
are helping to make sure reconstruction reduces future disaster risks, health facilities
are more climate resilient and the economy is better managed and supported. DFID holds
itself to the highest standards and UK Aid must be delivered at all times in ways
which do no harm. We will not fund any organisation that does not meet our high standards
on safeguarding. Evidence suggests that sexual exploitation and abuse increase during
crises and we must never be complacent. This is a long-term agenda and DFID continues
to drive work to tackle sexual exploitation and abuse and sexual harassment. We are
making good progress with initiatives that root out perpetrators and improve support
to survivors and victims.</p>
