Collapse of public administration

The REZILYANS AYITI consortium, a humanitarian partnership of five organizations—Plan International, the Centre for Rural Development and Community Action (CAPAC), Mercy Corps, the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), and Save the Children, has launched a multi-sectoral emergency humanitarian response in the West, Central, and Artibonite departments to assist more than 400,000 people affected by the escalating armed violence and population displacement. This initiative is funded by the Regional Humanitarian Fund for Latin America and the Caribbean.
Approximately 6.4 million people, more than half of Haiti’s population, are in need of humanitarian assistance. According to the IPC (April 2026), 5.8 million people are at risk of acute food insecurity. A large portion of the population lives in precarious conditions, a situation exacerbated by mass displacement, limited access to essential services, and increased protection risks, thus requiring a rapid, coordinated, and multisectoral humanitarian response.
This project, which will run until October 2026, aims to improve the living conditions of vulnerable populations in 10 communities in the West, Central, and Artibonite regions by supporting displaced households and host communities through multifaceted financial assistance, while also strengthening food security, access to water, hygiene, and sanitation, and improving nutrition services by enhancing access to prevention, screening, and treatment of global acute malnutrition in displacement camps and host communities.
The intervention also integrates child protection services, including psychosocial support, case management, and community outreach, to safely identify affected children and refer them to essential services, with particular attention to girls and the most vulnerable groups.
In a context where humanitarian needs in Haiti remain particularly high, the REZILYANS AYITI consortium is implementing an integrated approach aimed at reducing protection risks, restoring dignity, and strengthening the resilience of affected communities.
