The challenge for Haitian higher education: a post-earthquake assessment of higher education institutions in the Port-au-Prince metropolitan area

This study uses content analysis of historically produced documents on the state of higher education in Haiti. It integrates focus groups, individual interviews, and photographic reports produced by the Haitian Education and Leadership Program (HELP). Data from focus groups were transcribed and analyzed for content and meaning. Content and survey analysis has been integrated into the overall methodology to generate a framework that reveals the underlying factors that shape the nation’s higher education system.
