Poverty in Haiti after the earthquake
Haitian population of 10.5 million occupies a land mass of 11.000 square miles about the size Vermont. Haiti is by far the most impoverished Country of the American Continent. In excess of 75% ( percent ) of the Haitian population is below the absolute poverty level of $ 150 annually, rural areas $ 100, and can fall as low as $ 20 per year. An excess of 6% of the population retains 90% of the Country’s Wealth. Inflation increased during the embargo to a high of 52% in September 1994. It is estimated that 80 to 90% of the industrial Jobs were lost in 1993, 50% of school age children and only 10% of primary school Children complete that Cycle.
Over 80% of the Haitian population live in the rural areas and lack of water, micro Credit, agriculture development, depletion of trees, degradation of the Environment and soil erosion contribute to the absolute poverty and lack of credit and of food.
Health and nutrition Conditions were already poor before the embargo in 1991 and
the passage of the Earthquake in January 12, 2010. Since then, conditions have
deteriorated futh
