Kids risk gunfire or forced recruitment just to get to class, while schools in Port-au-Prince—where gangs control up to 90% of the city—are shuttered, destroyed, or repurposed as shelters. One child pleaded with UNICEF: “Can you stop what the gangs are doing to us?” Yet amid the terror, families cling to education as a lifeline—a place to reconnect, heal, and dream. UNICEF supports 174,000 children with supplies, safe spaces, and counseling, as resilience shines through in every child’s determination to learn and hope for a safer tomorrow.
