A Nation on the Brink
The Scale of the Crisis
State of Emergency
Haiti faces its worst crisis in modern history, with conditions now more severe than the devastating 2010 earthquake that claimed 250,000 lives.
Escalating Violence
Armed gangs control 80% of the capital, forcing thousands to flee their homes while kidnappings have increased by 400% since 2022.

Nearly half of Haiti's 11.4 million people face acute hunger, while 90% of schools are closed and hospitals operate without basic supplies.
