The result

36% of Haitian schooled children drop out of school before reaching 6th grade.

There are 4 times more students per teacher in public classrooms in Haiti than in public elementary schools in the US.

Lack of professional teachers, lack of training, insufficient structure, lack of nutrition and funds in the educational system are among the key drivers of the education crisis.

In the past five decades the extreme shortage of skilled teachers has lead to extremely high illiteracy rates for Haiti, leading to an eventual unqualified workforce and leadership.

A nation cannot progress without educated and analytical citizens who question and change the status quo.
