Overview
Haiti's tertiary enrollment stood at 1.05% in 1986, a decline of +0.04pp from 1984. Haiti ranked 62nd globally.
Haiti’s tertiary enrollment remained extremely low over the ten‑year span from 1976 to 1986, rising from 0.63 % in 1976 to a modest 1.05 % in 1986, which placed the country 62nd in the world. The highest share recorded in the period was 1.09 % in 1984, while the lowest point occurred in 1977 at 0.60 %. Throughout the decade the enrollment rate fluctuated within a narrow band, never approaching the levels of regional peers such as Lesotho (1.22 %) or Mali (0.94 %). The limited progress reflects persistent constraints in higher‑education infrastructure, financing, and labor‑market demand. Although the upward movement from the 1970s trough to the mid‑1980s peak suggests gradual improvement, the trajectory will likely depend on sustained public investment, reforms to expand access, and broader economic development that can generate demand for tertiary qualifications.
