50% of Haitians never go to school. Only 2% complete secondary education.
The unemployment rate is estimated at 70%
2.2% of the population is infected with HIV/AIDS (the highest prevalence outside of Africa)
50% of children under the age of 5 are malnourished
Only 2% of Haiti's arable land is not deforested
