Two other countries must have gotten worse...I've long felt that every school in Haiti needs to include an anti-corruption class in every grade level that teaches children from 1st grade on what corruption is, the various ways it is carried out in every day life so they can recognize it, basic ethics, etc., with each grade level getting age appropriate education in how bad it is for the country, the economy, and how it impacts their lives and future.
For what it's worth, Haiti actually moved UP 2 points from 2020. Rated 164 out of 180 countries. https://www.transparency.org/en/cpi/2021/

The money designated for Haiti - does not really go to the Haitians -- but in the form of "assistance"Kinda like " just give us the money and leave us alone" That will work, not.
