RECOCARNO is a network of eight coffee producer cooperatives operating in northern Haiti, which was supported by Oxfam since its formation in 2001. RECOCARNO has Fairtrade certification, which enables it to market the coffee produced by its members at a premium above international prices, with profits being redistributed to producers each year. These full and summary reports document the findings of a quasi-experimental impact evaluation carried out in November and December 2011 among coffee producers in the North and North East departments of Haiti.
