This webinar presents the first public release of new survey data from the Institute for Research and Action for Peace (IRAP) on security, justice, and governance in Haiti. Drawing on October 2025 data from displaced Haitians and community leaders in Port-au-Prince, the findings highlight chronic violence, concern about civilian harm, limited confidence in force-based responses, and low trust in the justice system ahead of February 2026.

Haiti Policy House is hosting a live webinar with Dan Foy, the U.S. business leader for global research/Analytics at Gallup, to examine how data collection has evolved in fragile states such as Haiti and South Sudan amid shifting technology, political pressure, and insecurity. The conversation will explore how Gallup overcomes core obstacles such as outdated census data, weak address systems, large displaced populations, and restricted access to areas under non-state armed group control, including much of Port-au-Prince.

Haitian women sustain households, keep markets running, and drive community survival. Their influence in daily life is strong but their voice in politics remains limited. This discussion looks at how economic leadership can become civic and political power. The conversation will highlight practical ways to move beyond symbolic inclusion and build real participation that shapes decision making and policy.

Dr. Robert Fatton, Jr. joins Haiti Policy House to discuss Haiti Beyond Elections: Elites, Institutions, and the Struggle for Democracy, a compelling discussion with the renowned scholar of Haitian politics and democracy. With decades of research, including works such as Haiti’s Predatory Republic and Haiti: Trapped in the Outer Periphery, Fatton brings deep insight into how elite networks, weak institutions, and informal power dynamics shape Haiti’s governance beyond the ballot box.
