Port-au-Prince, July 11, 2024 [AlterPresse] — Every person counts. Each person must be counted so that no one is left out. This is the message of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), on the occasion of July 11, which is World Population Day.
When the State does not count each person, it causes the person to not exist. It does not give people the opportunity to enjoy their fundamental rights. We can consider the case of a 10-year-old girl, who cannot receive proper sanitation services, because she is forced to become a displaced person due to the terror situation. We can also consider all children who do not get adequate protection, because the State does not register them from birth. We can also consider the case of an elderly woman, with disabilities, who cannot reach social security services in times of crisis. Therefore, the world will progress when the states count each person, when the states consider each person, no matter where they are, no matter who they are. It is important for the States to multiply their efforts to consider each person, to allow each person to have his place in their society, so that the society stops the miro miba. These are some pieces of the statement of the American female doctor, from Panama, Natalia Kanem, who has been the executive director of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) since 2017.
In the month of July 2024, in the country of Haiti, the population is in great trouble with the terror of gangs and guns, which forces more than 600 thousand people to move from the year 2023. Thousands of people, children, women, men, find themselves in bad living conditions, without any state structure to give them support, nor to ask them what they can sell.
The State of Haiti, especially the Ministry of National Education, must take serious action and act against the attacks, gangs and weapons are struggling against the State of Haiti and private universities, from the beginning of March 2024. It is the short cry of the Conference of Rectors, Presidents of Universities and Higher Education Institutions in Haiti (Corpuha).
For several months, gangs with guns have been vandalizing the private Goc University, located in Sous Matla, Kabarè commune, on national road number 1. On Saturday, July 6, 2024, individuals who have not yet been identified by the police set fire to the Quisqueya University of the Americas Institute (Inuka) in the municipality of Taba, Western department. These criminal acts, which have been taking place since the beginning of March 2024 against the state universities of Haiti and private universities, are a clear signal that criminals want to destroy higher education in Haiti. It is the consideration of the Conference of Rectors, Presidents of Universities and Higher Education Institutions in Haiti (Corpuha)

The strike of the double magistrates (which means government prosecutors and standby government prosecutors) has been going on since Wednesday, June 19, 2024, blocking the justice system in 18 civil tribal areas of Haiti. This is what the human rights organization Citizens and Citizens Organization for another Haiti (Ocnh) says he regrets, even when he recognizes the right of the mayors of Doubout to make their demands in favor of better working conditions. Ocnh proposed that it could play the role of middleman between the Ministry of Justice and the mayors of the two countries, to prevent Haiti’s justice system from being blocked.
