In Port-au-Prince, Haiti’s capital, near-daily violent clashes between armed groups and police continued in a climate of ongoing political instability, four years after President Moïse’s assassination. The escalation of conflict led to a steep increase in the number and brutality of incidents of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV), used systematically against women and girls. At the Pran Men’m (“take my hand”) clinic in Port-au-Prince, MSF teams continued to provide free comprehensive medical and psychological care to survivors of SGBV around the clock. The clinic has seen the number of patients triple since 2022, with an increasing number of patients reporting they have been assaulted several times by multiple aggressors, and that obtaining proper care has become more difficult. In 2025, MSF provided specialist care to 2,800 patients in this project, and more than 4,700 people countrywide. Across all our Haiti projects, MSF provided more than 177,900 outpatient consultations to people needing healthcare in a context of insecurity and diminished healthcare access.
$3.2 million of Canadian support went to MSF’s work in Haiti in 2025.
