For over forty years, Haiti has been undergoing an interminable transition period, marked by political instability, fragile institutions, and a deep moral crisis. Successive governments have failed to establish a coherent national vision, plunging the country and its population into a spiral of uncertainty and daily survival. The figures bear witness to this drift: over 350 billion USD have been swallowed up in unexecuted projects, misappropriations, and inefficient spending. The Human Development Index (HDI) has fallen by 25%, placing Haiti among the most unequal countries in the hemisphere. Over 60% of young people are unemployed, while half the population lives below the extreme poverty line. In this alarming context, the appointment of Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé as the sole head of the executive represents a historic opportunity: to break with the era of chaos and kleptocracy and set Haiti on the path of moral, economic, and political reconstruction. The PARASOL party, through the Doctrine of Humanist Dessalinism and the “Renaissance (Leave No One Behind)” program, offers a solid, inclusive, and visionary alternative, aiming to restore dignity, sovereignty, and hope for all Haitians.
This introduction thus establishes the framework for the national diagnosis and prepares the ground for detailing the consequences of forty years of traditional governance, while introducing PARASOL's vision for the future. II. Forty Years of Political and Social Drift.- For forty years, Haiti has been governed by a traditional political class incapable of proposing a coherent and sustainable vision for the country. This period has led to a multidimensional disaster: economic, social, institutional, and moral.
Consequences of traditional governance:
- Over 350 billion USD wasted in unexecuted projects, fictitious contracts, and inefficient public spending.
- A 25% decline in the Human Development Index (HDI), placing Haiti among the most unequal nations in the hemisphere.
- Endemic unemployment exceeding 60% among young graduates, causing despair and mass exodus.
- Extreme poverty affecting over 50% of the population, weakening social cohesion.
- Near-total degradation of public infrastructure: abandoned schools, hospitals, roads, and social housing.
- Systemic corruption and impunity, destroying public trust in leaders and institutions.
- Mass emigration and brain drain, depriving the country of its young talents and qualified professionals.
- Collapse of national agricultural production, leading to food dependence and nutritional insecurity.
- Deindustrialization and bankruptcy of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), a direct consequence of the absence of coherent economic policies.
- Moral degradation and loss of social benchmarks, marked by rising violence, collective despair, and national division.
These indicators illustrate the historical failure of the traditional political class, trapped in clientelism, the pursuit of personal power, and constant improvisation. Forty years of shaky governance have stripped the state of its social mission and broken the people's trust. From a Human Perspective
Beyond the figures, millions of lives are affected: uprooted families, disillusioned youth, marginalized women, and abandoned rural communities. This tragic assessment calls for a strong, moral, and patriotic national response, guided by a new doctrine that places humanity and dignity at the center of governance: the Doctrine of Humanist Dessalinism. III. The Role and Vigilance of the International Community.-
Haiti is not alone in its quest for stability and renaissance. The international community has played a crucial role in preventing the country's total collapse and supporting its political transitions. The UN, OAS, CARICOM, and other hemispheric organizations have consistently exercised attentive, often salvific, vigilance in the face of successive crises. The PARASOL party commends these efforts while reiterating that the true solution to the Haitian crisis must come from within, driven by the responsibility and commitment of citizens and national institutions. The sovereignty of the Haitian people remains the foundation of any lasting reconstruction.
PARASOL also extends special recognition to President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, whose strategic vigilance and diplomatic support have helped prevent more serious crises and prepare the ground for an orderly and responsible transition
.
This cooperation illustrates the need for a balance between international support and national sovereignty: Haiti can benefit from the experience and resources of foreign partners without compromising its autonomy. The Doctrine of Humanist Dessalinism
embodies this vision: it advocates for international openness guided by respectful cooperation, justice, and the supreme interest of the nation, while affirming the independence and dignity of the Haitian people. IV. Strategic Appreciation of the United States Congress and Extension of the HOPE/HELP Act: A Lever for Economic Partnership and Shared Prosperity.-
The Patriyòt Rasanble pou Sove Lakay (PARASOL) party expresses its deepest gratitude and high regard for the United States Congress for its responsible decision to extend the HOPE/HELP Act until December 31, 2026.
This visionary and supportive act reflects the sincere will of the American people and their representatives to support Haiti's economic reconstruction and preserve thousands of essential jobs within its textile and manufacturing industry. PARASOL considers this gesture not only a political measure but also a symbol of friendship, solidarity, and shared values between two nations united by history, freedom, and resilience.
In this spirit, the party warmly encourages the honorable members of the American Congress to consider a permanent and expanded renewal of this legislation, within a global framework of economic cooperation, social inclusion, and sustainable development. Such a forward-looking initiative would strengthen regional stability, stimulate long-term investments, and further consolidate the historical ties of friendship and partnership between Haiti and the United States.
Through this cooperation, the United States demonstrates that leadership and solidarity can transform hope into opportunity, paving the way for a new era of pragmatic diplomacy and human-centered development — principles at the heart of the PARASOL movement and its “Renaissance (Leave No One Behind)” vision. V. Vision and Recommendations to Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé.-
The time for historical responsibility is now. Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé, as the sole head of the executive, bears the crucial mission of transforming the country and restoring the Haitian people's trust in its institutions.
The PARASOL party proposes a series of concrete and strategic recommendations:
- Inclusive and Targeted National Dialogues:
- Technocratic and Reduced Government:
- Free, Honest, and Transparent Elections:
- Constitutional Reform:
- Strengthened National and Public Security:
- Economic Contingency Plan for SMEs and the Local Economy:
Establish a special fund of 200 million USD to recapitalize small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), stimulate local employment, revive the national economy, and promote the sustainable empowerment of Haitian entrepreneurs.
PARASOL, under the strategic vision of its president Yvon Bonhomme, embodies a political and moral alternative to forty years of failing traditional governance. The Doctrine of Humanist Dessalinism
Conceived by Yvon Bonhomme, this doctrine draws inspiration from the revolutionary legacy of Emperor Jean-Jacques Dessalines, while adapting it to contemporary challenges. It rests on three pillars:
- National sovereignty: restore Haiti's authority and independence in all its dimensions.
- Social justice: guarantee equal opportunities and protect the most vulnerable.
- Human dignity: place humanity at the center of public policies, ensuring respect for fundamental rights.
Humanist Dessalinism is not limited to historical memory; it offers a pragmatic vision for the 21st century, where governance is guided by morality, transparency, and citizen participation.
The fruit of Yvon Bonhomme's thought and commitment, this program transforms doctrine into concrete actions:
- Establishment of a competent and integral government;
- Relaunch of constitutional reform;
- Strengthened public security and protection of vulnerable citizens;
- Creation of a 200 million USD fund to recapitalize SMEs and revive the local economy;
- Promotion of agriculture, women's empowerment, and youth inclusion;
- Development of culture, innovation, and the Haitian diaspora;
- International cooperation based on mutual respect, particularly with the United States under the Trump administration and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
PARASOL positions itself as the engine of national renaissance, capable of mobilizing all vital forces of the country and restoring trust both nationally and with the international community. This approach demonstrates that sovereignty and openness, dignity and pragmatism can coexist harmoniously, offering Haiti a modern, balanced, and deeply humanist governance model. Driven by a clear vision and an ethic of responsibility, PARASOL embodies the hope of a renewed state, rooted in justice, solidarity, and the dignity of the Haitian people — a state oriented towards modernity, cooperation, and respect for universal values. VII. Conclusion and International Appeal.-
Haiti stands at a historic turning point today. After forty years of unstable governance and trials, the country has the opportunity to reinvent itself and build a more just, stable, and prosperous society.
PARASOL, faithful to its humanist and patriotic mission, calls on all vital forces of the country — civil society, youth, women, vulnerable communities, and the diaspora — to rally behind the Doctrine of Humanist Dessalinism and the “Renaissance (Leave No One Behind)” program to build a united, dignified, and sovereign Haiti. The party expresses its full support for Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé in accomplishing this historic mission, and invites the international community — particularly the United States, the European Union, and CARICOM — to accompany the country with respect for its sovereignty and the dignity of its people. Haiti is not condemned to misery: it can be reborn. And this renaissance begins today, through the courage of a standing people, the foresight of its leaders, and the strength of a new doctrine that places humanity and justice at the heart of the national project.
