5 amazing facts you NEED to know about Haiti

Описание: 👉 Welcome to our new series, 5 Things, where we explore the culture, history, geography, and resilience of the countries where Concern works.

In episode one, we travel to Haiti. Though often in the news for complex humanitarian crises and escalating conflict, Haiti is a Caribbean nation with a profound global legacy and one of the richest cultural identities in the world.

From the dramatic mountain landscapes of Hispaniola to the rhythms of Carnival, from bold, spice-driven Haitian cuisine to the revolutionary history that reshaped the modern world, Haiti’s story is layered, powerful, and sometimes misunderstood.

In this video, you’ll discover 5 amazing facts about Haiti such as:
00:15 Why Haiti is called the “Land of High Mountains”
00:32 How climate, geography, and history intersect in Haiti and affect the local population today.
00:55 Why Soup Joumou is more than a dish, it’s a declaration of freedom
01:37 How history shaped the island shared with the Dominican Republic
02:09 The cultural importance of Carnival, music, and folklore

Despite ongoing challenges like economic instability, food insecurity, and climate vulnerability, Haitians continue to lead with resilience, creativity, and solidarity, preserving traditions that inspire the world.
