More than half of Haiti’s population—approximately 5.7 million people—are facing high levels of acute food insecurity, driven by relentless gang violence and ongoing economic collapse, according to the latest IPC analysis.
Out of the 5.7 million people facing high levels of acute food insecurity—the highest number in recent years—over 8,400 people living in displacement camps are experiencing catastrophic hunger in IPC Phase 5 (Catastrophe). An additional 2.1 million people, representing 19 per cent of the analysed population, are in IPC Phase 4 (Emergency), facing critical food insecurity, while 3.6 million people (32 per cent) are classified in IPC Phase 3 (Crisis).
