NGO protection clusters should immediately convene a working group to translate the OHCHR seven-pillar framework into operational SOPs for child protection during GSF-led anti-gang operations expected beginning April 2026. Humanitarian funding managers should prioritize the February-May lean season window in current disbursement timelines, as this is the peak need period for the 3.49 million requiring food assistance. Aviation stakeholders should monitor the FAA flight ban review in March 2026 as the key regulatory signal that will determine whether international airline reentry into Port-au-Prince becomes feasible before the August election cycle.

Diaspora organizations should mobilize remittance support specifically calibrated to the February-May lean season peak, coordinating with WFP and local distribution networks to maximize food access efficiency. CONFIDENCE High confidence based on official institutional reporting.
