Haiti is grappling with the dual impact of Tropical Storm Melissa, which has disrupted daily life and posed significant threats to the nation’s agricultural sector. Sunrise Airways announced the cancellation of all flights to and from Haiti on October 28 and 29, affecting key destinations such as Miami, Port-au-Prince, Les Cayes, Cap-Haïtien, and Providenciales. The airline has pledged to update passengers on the resumption of services once conditions improve. Meanwhile, the storm’s potential to devastate crops has raised alarms, with over 330,000 farm households at risk. Given that more than half of Haiti’s population faces acute food insecurity, safeguarding national food production is critical. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and Haiti’s Ministry of Agriculture are closely monitoring the situation and preparing to assist affected families. In addition to these challenges, projections indicate that 720,000 people in southern Haiti will be impacted by Melissa. The World Food Programme (WFP), in collaboration with the government and partners, has already provided advance payments to 47,000 vulnerable individuals and plans to expand food and financial aid. The international community has also expressed concern, with the Organization of American States (OAS) and the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) offering solidarity and support to Haiti and other affected nations. Amid these crises, a glimmer of hope emerges as Shelenchie Jeanty, a Haitian woman, becomes the first to pass the bar exam in Chile, a milestone celebrated by the Ministry of Haitians Living Abroad (MHAVE) as a source of pride for the diaspora.
