Haiti
In 2021, in Haiti, the assassination of the President, as well as a powerful earthquake, challenged the country’s stability and further delayed already overdue elections. Nonetheless, the Electoral Violence Prevention and Management Unit, established by the Provisional Electoral Council, launched a prevention strategy to curb electoral and political violence, including against women, through a $1.5 million Fund investment of UNDP and UN-Women. To address community violence reduction amid increasing gang violence, community-level platforms in 11 Cité Soleil neighbourhoods were established through a $1.5 million project implemented by the organization Concern Worldwide, while local mediation cells promoted ceasefires between armed gangs and local dialogue through an initiative of UNOPS, UNDP and UNFPA. In the future, a new national legal assistance council and associated offices in 18 jurisdictions will provide legal aid to vulnerable populations while strengthening coordination between judicial actors and the penal system.
