Mission Statement
PPAF works to help people in Haiti with innovations and collaborations. Read more about our organization and strategy below. We work with a Haitian university and Haitian non-profits as well as American organizations on clean cooking and capacity-building. We also convene seminars and make presentations for information-sharing and advocacy.
About This Cause
The Public-Private Alliance Foundation (PPAF), a non-profit organization, promotes the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and a business approach for poverty alleviation through projects and seminars involving multi-stakeholder cooperation. PPAF engages in work on clean cookstoves and fuel, public health, renewable energy, employable skills and other aspects of sustainable development, with a special focus on empowerment of women and girls. Special attention goes to efforts to overcome the poverty-respiratory disease-deforestation trap of Haitian families' heavy reliance on charcoal for cooking. PPAF works with many Haitian and U.S.-based collaborators. Together we support teaching and fieldwork on cooking with solar and biogas and for support to the young entrepreneurs program of a children's center. PPAF links with the UN Economic & Social Council, the UN Department of Global Communication, the UN Global Compact and others. History: PPAF was established in 2007 as an outgrowth of the UN Public-Private Alliance for Rural Development and the interest of ambassadors to the UN from Madagascar, the Dominican Republic and Haiti. PPAF has worked with dozens of organizations, businesses and government representatives in these focus countries and in the UN and related institutions. Since the 2010 Haiti earthquake we have focused our work on Haiti.
