The effects of the catastrophic earthquake of 2010 are still rippling across Haiti, with much of the population lacking access to health services due to steep costs, insufficient availability in rural areas, and limited knowledge. UNFPA responds to humanitarian needs and assists with extending basic maternal and reproductive health care services, especially to the poorest and most excluded groups. It helps build capacities to generate reliable data on population trends, and supports measures to protect women and girls against gender-based violence and to reduce the high maternal mortality rate.
