Donors Pledge $9.9B for Haiti Reconstruction

HeadlineApr 01, 2010

International donors have pledged $9.9 billion for the reconstruction of earthquake-ravaged Haiti over the next several years. Meeting at the United Nations on Wednesday, over fifty nations and international organizations made the pledges after the Haitian government unveiled a long-awaited rebuilding plan. UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said the aid would assist a historic reconstruction.

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon: “What we envision today is a wholesale national renewal, a sweeping exercise in nation-building on a scale and scope not seen in generations.”
