Highlights
- Armed violence, displacement and collapsing services continue to endanger children in Haiti. Around 1.4 million people are displaced across the country, including more than 741,000 children. Some 5.7 million people face high levels of acute food insecurity, Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) phase 3 and above, at including 1.2 million children under age 5. Cholera remains a concern as affected populations have restricted access to health facilities, compounded by rising costs and limited resources.
- UNICEF will deliver an integrated life-saving package across health, nutrition, WASH, education and child protection through fixed and mobile teams, with humanitarian cash transfers provided as part of shock-responsive social protection. The response will prioritizehard-to-reach areas through national partners, pre-positioning, accountability and safeguarding, including through protection from sexual exploitation and abuse.
- UNICEF requests US$256.6 million to assist 1.7 million people in Haiti in 2026, including 1.2 million children. Flexible and timely resources are critical to maintain pipelines and enable UNICEF to act as provider of last resort.
