Haiti is entering 2026 facing one of the most complex crises in its recent history as armed violence intensified in the last three months of 2025.
Armed gangs now control large swathes of territory and violence has spread well beyond the capital Port-au-Prince, weakening the State’s ability to govern and deliver basic services.
According to UN Secretary-General António Guterres’ latest report, gangs are using heavy weapons, sexual violence and kidnappings to assert control, while police operations supported by the Gang Suppression Force have pushed back in limited areas.
As trust in established multilateral institutions and governments erodes, new alliances and coalitions are emerging. Adapting to a shifting international landscape, these actors are filling critical gaps while influencing diplomacy, technology and finance.
What form will the future architecture of international cooperation take?

Forecasts of AI’s impact on productivity vary widely, from those projecting a 15% boost in labour output across advanced economies to warnings that as many as 92 million jobs could vanish globally by 2030.
Generative AI will transform work as we know it, but will that transformation lead to shared prosperity or widening exclusion? How can we prevent productivity gains from masking a much bleaker economic picture.
