Violence & gender-based harm: Haiti’s first-quarter numbers are grim: OCHA says nearly 2,000 incidents of gender-based and sexual violence were recorded in 2026 Q1—about 21 a day—with rape making up over 70% and many cases involving gang rapes; meanwhile, protection and medical support is badly underfunded. Women’s rights in government: Protests erupted after the dismissal of the Director General of Haiti’s Ministry for the Status of Women, with critics warning the leadership shift signals a step backward for women’s representation. Education & jobs: The École Normale Supérieure received 308 internship letters for graduating students, part of a push to strengthen teacher training and staffing. International attention & aid: The EU plans to invest about €328 million in Haiti by 2028, mixing development goals with emergency humanitarian support. Security & displacement: UN warnings say violence is worsening, with churches reporting families fleeing. World stage: Pope Leo XIV met Haiti’s PM Fils-Aimé in a historic audience focused on security, migration, and humanitarian challenges.
