Advocacy for Haiti
What’s Happening?
Haiti’s president was assassinated in July 2021 and has lacked any elected government officials since early 2023. Violent gangs have taken increasing control over the country, half the population needs humanitarian aid, food insecurity is growing, and disease—including cholera—is spreading.
What Must Be Done?
Refugees International is advocating for an end to the political stalemate, empowerment of local groups to respond to humanitarian needs, and the creation of pathways to safety for Haitians.
