Global Partnership Organization (GPO) stands in solidarity with Haitians as it was reported  the  situation in Haiti is dire: more than 2,000 killings in the first six months of this year; more than 1,000 kidnappings in the same period; over five million Haitians  urgently need humanitarian assistance; tens of thousands of Haitians facing catastrophic hunger; nearly 60,000 suspected cholera cases.  Nearly half of those cases are children.These statistics, we  all have to remember what it  means, what the reality on the ground looks like, for the Haitian people, because it’s easy to get lost in numbers and abstractions.  These are real lives, and the effects are profound.  For residents in communes like Cité Soleil or Cabaret, it means – as a practical matter – that clean drinking water and electricity have been cut off for more than a year.  It means shuttered hospitals and health clinics.  It means people going days without having a single meal.  It means parents not being able to send kids to school.  It means minors subjected to forced conscription by gangs, and women to widespread sexual violence.  Wandering outside the neighborhood – to shop for groceries, to look for work – can be, and often is, a death sentence.

GPO calls on donor  community of humanitarian assistance to help  the suffering people of Haiti. The world leaders should take meaningful action to address the scourge of illegal weapons flowing into Haiti. we laud nations  that have issued restrictions to hold leaders accountable those who are financing the gangs.

 We encourage the parties to reach an agreement as soon as possible, and in the meantime, we urge the creation of a humanitarian carve-out that allows for the delivery of food and medical supplies. For aid to flow where it’s needed, for the conditions Haitians need to be able to improve, for crucial political dialogue to be made possible, we know fundamentally that the security situation has to be stabilized.

GPO lauds the efforts to have the UN-backed Multinational Security Support mission. The proposal for this mission now before the UN Security Council is designed to be truly multinational in its resourcing and nature.  It requires a collective effort if it’s going to succeed.  And already, countries around the world are stepping up.

We welcome and appreciate the Kenyan Government willingness to serve as the lead nation of this mission.  We laud Kenya's leadership under the able leadership of H.E Dr. William Ruto  on the peace mission , we support Kenya’s vision for a three-part security mission: providing operational support to the Haitian National Police to combat the gangs, ensuring static security of key installations and thoroughfares, and strengthening the Haitian National Police for the long term. We urge the international community to  continue supporting efforts for peace missions and pledging additional personnel, as well as equipment, logistics, training, and funding.Exodus 19:19
