Haiti - Humanitarian : PAHO sends 3 tons of essential medicines and health supplies to Haiti
On Wednesday, April 2nd, 2025, as part of its commitment to respond to the protracted humanitarian crisis in Haiti, 3 tons of essential medicines and health supplies arrived in Haiti from the Pan American Health Organization's (PAHO/WHO) strategic stockpile in Panama.

The shipment includes surgical kits for trauma patients, syringes, personal protective equipment for health workers, emergency medical backpacks, and other general medical supplies needed to meet urgent health needs.

Strategic collaboration with Haitian health authorities and humanitarian partners allows PAHO to continue supporting those most in need. As a result, the Organization has been able to mobilize a total of 254 tons of medical supplies for Haiti since the beginning of 2024.

"The increasing violence, including blockades of ports and airports, has hampered the health sector’s ability to deliver humanitarian assistance to communities in Haiti most in need," explained Dr. Oscar Barreneche, PAHO/WHO Representative in Haiti, adding, "These humanitarian shipments coordinated by PAHO have been a lifeline in supporting the continued provision of emergency treatment and routine health services for Haitians."

This shipment was made possible thanks to PAHO’s close coordination with the Haiti Logistics Cluster, the United Nations Humanitarian Response Depot in Panama, and the World Food Programme (WFP), as implementing partners.
