Virtual Roundtable - Haiti: Paths to Stability for a Nation in Shock (Online Event, 19th October 2021)

The assassination in July of Haitian President Jovenel Moïse, perpetrated with no apparent resistance from his elite security detail, and a bout of natural disasters weeks later have further destabilised an already fragile Haiti and intensified its humanitarian crisis at a time of extreme insecurity.

This roundtable will examine the causes of violence and instability in Haiti and will explore the ways in which Haitians, with the support of the international community, can take actions to overcome the current crisis.
