Abstract
Poverty reduction has been a prominent and critical goal of Haiti's main international donors, yet they have directed little economic aid to rural areas where a large segment of Haiti's poor live and work. Instead, donors have focused on re-establishing a vibrant urban-based manufacturing sector. While sidestepping agriculture is not a new trend, this paper argues that the policy set employed by donors since 2004 – a conflict and development approach that stresses vulnerability to crime and political instability – has served to reinforce the country's historical bias against rural development. While the 2010 earthquake has provided the impetus to decentralise economic activity, it is too soon to know if and how the rural poor will benefit, particularly given continued security-related concerns associated with the capital region.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
