Imagine you're a middle-class Haitian family living in the city. You have a house, a stable income, and a small amount of money in the bank. Buying a safe to store your seed phrase would be prohibitively expensive, and there's no practical way to order steel plates, stampers, or most other Bitcoin security tools. Although you do have a smartphone, a hardware wallet is out of the question. Given these circumstances, how would you secure your Bitcoin?

I haven't learned much about fediment, but I think it was created to help solve this issue.
As far as orange pilling Haiti goes, godspeed to you. Seems like a worthwhile endeavour.
Personally my first thought would be to find influencial/connected locals and orange pill them first. That way you can learn some of the pitfalls for that particular country first before trying to work with a crowd.
This is a good plan. I’m hoping to arrive with some low-profile practical ideas though, so I don’t come in with a first-world “just buy a ColdCard” chip on my shoulder.
Absolutely. I think the accessability options are just starting to pick up.
It might be worthwhile talking to some of the bitcoiners in Nigera to see what's happening there.
Coldcard isn't really neccessary in my view until you get past 5M sats or so. (At current pricing) Most haitians I would imagine will have far less than that starting out.
