Cité Soleil

So let alone their participation in these popular mobilizations become less and less.

The popular organizations who are in those neighborhoods, right, who are still holding on, I can name one Holds on till the very end, 2025, you know, the Moule Gaff who are in neighborhoods like Solino, who were in Cité Soleil at some point, and Martissant at some other points.

They are there present trying to do the work, right? But they're not able to compete with the agenda of the gangs and what the gangs offers.

Uh, very often some of the gang leaders talk about doing social work, and that's part of how they survive in these places.

During that period, 29 of Haiti's 140 municipalities are projected to reach Phase 3, classified as serious on the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification's acute malnutrition scale.

Uh, so to say, to, to tell Haitians, well, we are going to grant them amnesty, uh, this is something that is, is not going to be acceptable to, I, I would assume the vast majority of Haitians.

Mm.

Uh, and they...

You had about 13,000, uh, military officers, and they, they tamed the gangs.

Uh, there was some violence in the Cité Soleil, some, uh, very unpleasant type of violence.

Uh, but there was a taming of, of, of the gangs.
