在7.0级地震袭击海地后的27个月里，官方提供了近60亿美元的援助。另外30亿美元是私人捐款。对数据的分析表明，非政府组织和私人承包商一直是这些资金的中间接受者。海地政府只收到了1%的人道主义援助，以及15%到21%的长期救济援助。因此，海地的非政府组织和私人承包商为提供社会服务建立了广泛的基础设施。然而，这些实体的问责似乎有限——尽管使用了公共资金，但对提供的服务、拯救的生命或犯下的错误却很少进行评估。我们建议做三件事来改善现状。第一，非政府组织和私人承包商对其工作进行系统和广泛的评价。第二，通过公布支出和结果的数据，追究海地所有行为者的责任。第三，海地政府尽可能通过竞争性招标获得服务。
In the twenty-seven months after an earthquake of magnitude 7.0 struck Haiti, almost $6 billion was disbursed in official aid. Another $3 billion was donated in private contributions. Analysis of the data shows that nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and private contractors have been the intermediate recipients of most of these funds. The government of Haiti has received just 1 percent of humanitarian aid, and 15 to 21 percent of longer-term relief aid. NGOs and private contractors in Haiti have consequently built an extensive infrastructure for the provision of social services. Yet these entities appear to have limited accountability—despite the use of public funds, there are few evaluations of services delivered, lives saved, or mistakes made. We recommend three things to improve the current situation. One, that NGOs and private contractors carry out systematic and widely accessible evaluations of their work. Two, that all actors in Haiti be held accountable by publishing data on expenditures and outcomes. And three, that the government of Haiti procure services through competitive bidding whenever possible.
