  4. Factors affecting Human Sustainable Development

  5. Challenges Energy supply at the household level Deforestation control and afforestation Micro- basin management and soil erosion control Risk and disaster prevention & recovery Recovery of food production systems

  6. Cooperation pathways Argentina Agro forestry Models toward forest recovery in small farms production systems. Haiti Agro forestry models towards environmental recovery, energy and food production.

  7. Intervention Proposal Energy shortage Short term energy supply Argentine supply of sustainable charcoal from small rural producers. 2. Medium and Long Term energy supply. Haitian production of sustainable charcoal from social afforestation programs.

  8. Intervention ProposalEnvironmental Degradation Land management at the micro- basin level Double purpose afforestation: energy and soil cons.

  9. Intervention ProposalEnvironmental Degradation Land management at the micro- basin level Terracing for productive purposes

  10. Agro forestry Management

  11. HAITI. Charcoal projectEnergy demand features (5 years model) Wood and charcoal provide 70 % of household and industrial energy requirements Optimal personnel consumption of about 0,6 kg/person/day Local wood availability period: 5 years Total demand: 1.250 kg/person

  12. ARGENTINA. Charcoal projectEnergy supply features (5 years model) Biomass production: 49 tn wood/hectare Charcoal production efficiency: 10 tn/hectare Potential supply: 8 people/hectare Module population : 40.000 people Total module area: 5.000 hectares Ecosystem potential: 2.400.000 hectares

  13. Next steps Location (environmental conditions in Haiti) Organizational arrangements (Arg-Haiti) Financial support for charcoal (production, transport and distribution) Financial support for forestation Medium term (new energy sources)
