ALIMA in Haiti

In November, ALIMA led an exploratory mission to Haiti, to better understand current needs, more specifically in Port-au-Prince. Given ALIMA’s mission, we focused on humanitarian health needs, through the identification of the most vulnerable populations and the obstacles restricting access to health services. What emerged from our assessments was a crying need for health actors and therefore a strong desire to intervene as soon as possible in 2024. A team therefore went to Haiti in February to start activities.

Mission location : Port-au-Prince (Haiti) with regular travel to projects
