The Politics of Health

This research paper focuses on Haitian women's access to healthcare and barriers to receiving quality treatment, including how political turmoil has affected it throughout the 21st century. Haiti's history of economic instability has left many women in poverty and unable to pay for healthcare. Additionally, political turmoil has left many women unable to access resources, such as food and water, to maintain their health at home. In addressing the barriers to healthcare for Haitian women, we can begin to create a better quality of life for all.
