AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Haiti Violence & Children: In Port-au-Prince’s Cul-de-Sac Plain, 11-year-old Josué Saint-Vilus was killed in clashes between rival gangs and police—another reminder that children are being pulled into Haiti’s territorial fighting. IMF Watch: Haiti’s Staff-Monitored Programme has been extended through June 2027, with the IMF warning that higher oil prices are worsening fuel bills and subsidies as the economy stays under pressure. Gang Suppression Force: A new UN-backed anti-gang force is starting to deploy as violence surges, but the focus is also turning to the thousands of minors recruited by armed groups. World Cup Anxiety in the Diaspora: As Haiti’s first World Cup appearance in 50+ years nears, immigrant communities in places like Brooklyn’s “Little Haiti” are preparing for watch parties while fearing spillover from stricter U.S. immigration enforcement. TPS at Risk: A separate U.S. story highlights how Haitian temporary protected status could be jeopardized, raising fears of family separation. Public Health Cooperation: PAHO and the Carter Center signed a technical deal to push river blindness elimination across the Americas, including work on Hispaniola.
