Children in Haiti in danger and out of school because of armed violence
Relentless violence in Haiti is robbing children of the chance to attend school and placing them at risk of recruitment by armed groups.
Plan International Haiti
Plan International began operating in Haiti in 1973 to address the biggest inequalities and violations of children’s rights.
We work together with children, young people, supporters and partners to
strive for a just world where we are all equal.
In Haiti there are high rates of child marriage, teenage pregnancy, violence and child labour in addition to a lack of education. We are working in collaboration with the Haitian government to support children to realise their full potential and prevent the risks they are exposed to.
By focusing on the key issues faced by the most vulnerable children, especially girls in remote communities, we are working where we are needed most and can have the biggest impact.
We won’t stop until we are all equal.
Our current priorities include:
- Responding to and helping to prevent emergencies.
- Ensuring the most vulnerable children have access to a quality education.
- Preventing violence and exploitation, and supporting survivors of abuse.
- Preventing teenage pregnancy.
Hunger crisis in Haiti
Haiti is among the hungriest places on earth with 22% of its children chronically malnourished.
Please support our response to the crisis.
