Following the drought that hit Haiti in June 2018 https://www.icihaiti.com/en/news-25111-icihaiti-agriculture-food-security-update-july.html especially in the North, the Northeast, Grand'Anse, South-East and West, the National Coordination of Food Security (CNSA), conducted during the month of October 2018, a National Survey on Food and Nutritional Security (ENSAN) in collaboration the World Food Program (WFP) and the United Nations Food Fund (FAO) among others.

This survey reveals a deterioration of food security at the national level.
