Last week, the UN peacekeeping force that triggered Haiti’s devastating cholera epidemic has pulled out of the country after thirteen years.
It leaves a tarnished legacy, with the families of the 10,000 people who died and 800,000 sickened by cholera still awaiting remedies from the UN.
Despite clear evidence that the epidemic originated with its troops and was spread through its reckless sewage disposal practices, the UN spent six long years on denials and cover-ups before Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon admitted moral responsibility for the epidemic.
But those words have not translated into meaningful action to redress the harms.
As the UN drags its feet, efforts to eradicate cholera have stalled. Already impoverished families ravaged by the disease still struggle to cope with the loss of their economic and emotional support, with no relief in sight.
People will continue to fall sick and die until the UN provides a comprehensive remedy for the travesty it caused. The UN’s refusal to right this wrong has caused incalculable damage to its reputation and mission at a time when the world is in particular need of strong multilateral leadership.
