What does HDI Haiti do to support local community development?

I recently came across HDI Haiti while looking into organizations focused on sustainable development, and I'm interested in learning more about how it operates. From what I've gathered, HDI Haiti seems to focus on empowering local by supporting foundations initiatives and rather leadership than relying solely on external aid.

What I’m curious about is how effective this approach has been over time. Does working directly with local organizations create more long-term impact compared to traditional development models?

Also, what types of programs or sectors does HDI Haiti mainly focus on, and how do they ensure transparency and measurable results?
Would appreciate insights from anyone familiar with HDI Haiti or similar community-driven development efforts.
