PAHO - Health Cluster Situation Report No.26. Humanitarian Situation in Haiti. 13 September 2025

In 2025, Haiti continues to face a deepening humanitarian emergency marked by widespread insecurity, displacement, and limited access to essential services. Armed violence and gang control have severely disrupted daily life, forcing hundreds of thousands to flee their homes and straining the delivery of food, water, sanitation, and health care. The resurgence of cholera in late 2022, after a three-year absence, has further complicated the crisis, with conditions in displacement sites heightening the risk of disease transmission. To date, 1,287,593 people have been displaced across the country as a result of recurring gang violence, 83% of whom have been taken in by families.

This Situation Report provides an overview of key health and humanitarian indicators, including the evolving needs of affected populations and the response efforts led by national and international partners, based on data available as of Epidemiological Week 37 (September 13, 2025).
