Executive summary
Well-known because of poverty and violence
Haiti’s reputation is not the best to encourage tourists to visit the country. Haiti is the poorest country in Latin America and the Caribbean. Also, after the civil war that took place in 2004, it turned into a very violent and dangerous country. The political situation in Haiti is volatile and unpredictable. Kidnappings are very common. United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) peacekeepers have been working hard since June 2004 to calm the problem and are still working on this today. On 16 October 2007, the UN Security Council decided unanimously to extend the MINUSTAH mandate for another year.
The Diaspora returns to its roots
Over 2,000,000 Haitians live outside their native country. This diaspora not only sends a great deal of money to Haiti but return home often. It accounts for the largest proportion of inbound tourists and also actively invests in the industry.
Longed-for tourism development
Though travel and tourism only contributes 4% to the nation’s economy, because of its geographic advantages (located near the Dominican Republic and the United States), it represents a lucrative opportunity for the future. The government believes it could be more important in terms of economic and social sustainable development. Working to achieve the goal of the progressive return of Haiti to the tourist destinations chart, the Government wants to ensure tourism development based on the criteria of sustainable development; boosting cultural and historic heritage; and valuing environmental protection. Tourism development must also benefit local communities, through improving both employment opportunities and their quality of life.
