EXPERIENCE HAITI THROUGH THE
EYES OF MYRIAM

Haiti, the pearl of the Caribbean famous for its vibrant culture, art and music, was once a thriving and prosperous country. Today it has the reputation as the most impoverished nation in the Western Hemisphere. Years of political instability, violence and unrest, combined with an unequal distribution of wealth, depleted natural resources and the effects of natural disasters have resulted in 80 per cent of Haitians living in poverty. Life is particularly hard for Haitian children―especially for the 300,000 'restaveks', most of whom live in bondage, denied of their basic human rights. Journey to Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital, and enter into the desperate world of nine-year-old Myriam, a restavek, who cannot even dream of a different life.
