The educational system of Haiti is based on the French system. Higher education, under the responsibility of the Ministry of Education, [] is provided by universities and other public and private institutions. The January earthquake, was a major setback for education reform in Haiti as it diverted limited resources to survival.

Many reformers have advocated the creation of a free, public and universal education system for all primary school-age students in Haiti.

There are also medical schools and law schools offered at both the University of Haiti and abroad.
Most people living in Haiti are at high risk for major infectious diseases. Food or water-borne diseases include bacterial and protozoal diarrhea , typhoid fever and hepatitis A and E; common vector -borne diseases are dengue fever and malaria ; water-contact diseases include leptospirosis. Unsafe water, along with inadequate housing and unsanitary living conditions, contributes to the high incidence of infectious diseases. There is a chronic shortage of health care personnel and hospitals lack resources, a situation that became readily apparent after the January earthquake.
