Students at the École Nationale de Randel. The Ecole Nationale de Randel, as with many schools in the Port-à-Piment watershed, operates with limited facilities, few pedagogical materials, and high student-to-teacher ratios.

The Earth Institute has begun implementing an innovative project throughout the South Department of Haiti, and has added a new partner to this critical work, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. The work includes the Côte Sud Initiative, covering all communes within the South Department, and the recent launch of the first Millennium Village in the Western Hemisphere in the Port-à-Piment watershed.
