Description
Haiti is facing multifaceted and serious challenges. Government institutions have ceased to function effectively, and gangs, backed by the wealthy oligarchs, control nearly two-thirds of the country. Frequent natural disasters further exacerbate the multitude of crises confronting Haiti. While there is certainty about the severity of the situation, there are few actors with the capacity and willingness to adequately address it. Many of the issue areas examined in this diagnostic are closely interrelated to each other. In addition to data on the Country Indicators for Foreign Policy’s (CIFP) nine main indicator clusters, this diagnostic draws on research from other relevant sources where appropriate.
