Haiti: IPC Acute Food Insecurity Analysis, September 2026 to June 2027
- More than 5.94 million people, 53% of the population analyzed, face high acute food insecurity (IPC Phase 3 or above) from September 2026 to February 2027, including about 1.8 million in Emergency (Phase 4).
- The projection for March to June 2027 is 6.35 million people (57%) in Phase 3 or worse, with nearly 2 million in Emergency.
- About 1.49 million people are displaced, and year-on-year inflation reached 17% in August 2026.
- Four more zones in Artibonite, Sud-Est and Nord-Ouest are expected to move into Emergency (Phase 4) in the projection period.
- Among female-headed households, 54% are in Phase 3 or worse in the current period, rising to 60% in the projection.
- Only displacement camps and four other units reach the IPC assistance threshold, and assistance stays insufficient to change classifications overall.
This IPC analysis was produced at a classification workshop organized by the CNSA from 5 to October 13, 2026 in Port-au-Prince. It classifies acute food insecurity for the current period (September 2026 to February 2027) and a projection (March to June 2027). It attributes the situation to armed violence and displacement, a prolonged economic recession with inflation of 17 percent, and climate risks tied to El Niño 2026-2027. It gives population estimates by phase for each analysis zone, a focus on the Port-au-Prince metropolitan area and displacement camps, and a separate analysis of female-headed households. It reviews humanitarian food assistance, which stays below IPC thresholds in most zones. It closes with recommendations, risk factors to monitor, and the methodology and limits of the analysis, including FEWS NET's respectful disagreement on the severity.
