The relationship between Haiti and the United States has been shaped over many decades, influenced by political, economic, and humanitarian interests. The United States involvement in Haiti has been complex, ranging from military interventions to financial aid and development programs. While some efforts have aimed to stabilize the country and support Haitian institutions, others have been criticized as contributing to long-term dependency. One of the areas most influenced by this involvement is the Haiti educational system, which has struggled with challenges related to accessibility, funding, and structural inequities. Understanding how foreign influence and internal challenges intersect helps reveal both the progress made and the obstacles that still remain.
