In a letter sent to the Prime Minister in early August, CORPUHA highlighted the "calamitous situation" of higher education in Haiti, especially in the metropolitan area of Port-au-Prince. According to CORPUHA, the current state of higher education institutions surpasses the disruptions caused by the January 12, 2010 earthquake. "At that time, not all hope was lost. Today, the sector finds itself in a context where all hope seems to be fading," CORPUHA emphasized.

The organization attributes this dire situation to three major factors: the COVID-19 pandemic, which had "negative consequences" leading to the closure of higher education institutions with "disastrous financial effects on their cash flow"; the mass exodus of young Haitians to other countries between 2021 and 2024; and the security crisis that has plagued the country over the past three years.
