This panel presentation will explore successful collaborations/partnerships among NGO's, the state, private sector and faith-based organizations before and after the devastating earthquake. Panelists for the evening include representatives from UPS, MedShare, United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) and the Consulate General of Haiti in Atlanta.  The moderator for the evening is Edvige Jean-Francois, Producer Special Projects, CNN International.   The panelists will each discuss a opportunity faced by their organization, solutions developed and outcomes achieved.  The goal of the evening is to look back at relief, rebuilding and international response and ask, 1) what has worked? 2) what's not working? 3) what are the opportunities and challenges faced by the state and non-state actors? 4) what shape will meaningful partnerships for progress in Haiti take in the future?
