I examine data collected from several international organizations, I scrutinize three indicators that best represent basic services ( i.e. Human Development Index, access to health and education). To analyze if foreign aid is helping Haiti’s economic growth and development I monitor changes in Human Development Index, trends in the numbers of those who have access to health and education. I also focus on the impact of food aid, humanitarian aid. I focus on these indicators for three reasons: First, these indicators are used throughout the international community because they provide quantitative statistics on Haiti’s population. Second, they are comprehensive (these indicators detail, age, gender, location of the populace), they encompass some

(Education is too expensive, a lot of Haitian children are not in school, they get into other activities because they are not in school; they have to work.) Sandra, a mother & factory worker To begin, I assess the impact foreign aid has on the Haitian economy by analyzing economic growth, human capital, and stagnation from January 2010 to present. Economic growth refers to, processes based on the structure and functions of the political economy. One of the main components of economic growth involves human capital. Human capital refers to assets the labor force possesses. Human capital implies that the government has made investments in its population (e.g. education, training, health) and that these investments increase an individual’s productivity. Stagnation refers to, cycles of short term or long term slow economic growth (measured by Gross Domestic Production (“GDP”) …show more content…
high quality health facility, low quality health facility) in addition to parents health (i.e. prenatal care and postnatal treatment) and aggregates the weighted average. The results presented from Haiti throughout the past five years indicates that foreign aid in the health, and the humanitarian sectors contributes to the decrease in mortality rate. In 2010 Haiti’s mortality rate was its highest based on collected data, it was 208.8 the island nation now has a third of that number. This is significant progress, it illustrates that investments in health care staffs, enhanced quality of health care services, and broadened access to medication may have contributed to the declining number of under five deaths. This indicator is crucial because it provides data on the status of health in a country while scrutinizing large series of information (i.e. cross national data on birth, quality of health provided by health facilities). The data provided on Haiti does not support the research problem. Foreign aid does prevent Haiti’s growth in terms of economic and development. In the following chapter the GDP growth (annual percentage) indicator will be
