About
On October 2, 2024, the Dominican Republic announced that it would drastically increase deportations to Haiti with a target of deporting 10,000 people each week. By the end of the campaign’s first month, Dominican authorities reported that over 60,000 people had been repatriated to Haiti.
Join Edwidge Danticat, Dominican and Haitian activists, NYU Law’s Global Justice Clinic, and the Hemispheric Network for Haitian Migrants' Rights on International Human Rights Day for a webinar discussing the human rights violations resulting from this deportation campaign and actions to address the ongoing harms.
