Although there are no official statistics on rape in Haiti, feminist activist Pascale Solages has revealed on the radio of the capital that according to the partial data of feminist organizations for the defense of women's rights , at least 10 rapes are committed every day in Haiti, stressing that this number is much lower than reality, since these figures only take into account the women who decided to talk about it. According to the latest study of the Ministry of Health, published in July 2017, one in eight women report having suffered sexual violence at some point in their lives.
