Affected Haitian farmers have not only lost their land but also the chance for a better future
In 2012, the industrial park in Caracol, Haiti, was inaugurated by Hillary and Bill Clinton. The aim was to create 65,000 new jobs and thus secure a better future for Haitians.

This also affected Duone’s family, who were 12 years old when the project began and now have to worry about their future.
