Haiti humanitarian crisis: Internal displacement triples to surpass 1 million
The number of internally displaced people in Haiti has reached more than 1 million, according to the latest figures released by the International Organisation for Migration (IOM). 1,041,000 people are struggling amidst an intensifying humanitarian crisis.
The IOM figures represent of threefold increase in displacement in just a year, rising from 315,000 in December 2023. In the capital Port-au-Prince alone, internal displacement has nearly doubled, rising by 87%.
The people of Haiti are facing a storm of challenges, including relentless gang violence, food insecurity and the collapse of essential services. The deteriorating situation underscores the urgent need for security and assistance.
The majority of the internally displaced people originate from the metropolitan area of Port-au-Prince. Many are relying on already overstretched host communities, such as families, friends and acquaintances, for shelter.
