摘要

This chapter synthesizes the preceding analyses to outline policy proposals aimed at rebuilding urban futures in Haiti through a framework of territorial sovereignty. It emphasizes that the persistent crisis of governance, marked by institutional fragility, centralization, and fragmented planning, requires a paradigmatic shift toward polycentric, participatory, and justice-oriented approaches. Building on the practices of grassroots actors, it argues for a renewed model of subsidiarity, where decision-making is anchored at the closest territorial scale, while supported by strong national coordination. The chapter proposes mechanisms for shared planning, institutional accountability, and equitable redistribution of resources as central to fostering inclusive urban futures. It highlights the need to integrate situated knowledge and local innovation into formal governance processes, recognizing communities not merely as recipients of policy but as co-producers of territorial strategies. By advancing principles of territorial justice, solidarity, and deliberative democracy, the chapter envisions an urban future where sovereignty is plural, negotiated, and deeply embedded in collective territorial visions. Ultimately, it calls for a new political culture that reconciles state, civil society, and community actors in the construction of resilient, inclusive, and sovereign urban governance.
