Haiti-Ministerial Reshuffle: Kay Jèn Organization Calls for Concrete Actions

PORT-AU-PRINCE.— In a press statement published on March 5, 2026, the youth organization Kay Jèn acknowledged the recent ministerial reshuffle, while calling on the new authorities to take concrete actions to address the crises affecting the country.

In this document signed by its communication manager, Chedler Désir, the organization believes that, in a context marked by deep social, economic, and security difficulties, this change within the government must not be limited to a simple administrative readjustment. According to Kay Jèn, it should rather constitute a real political turning point in favor of human rights and the interests of the population.

The organization emphasizes that the population expects tangible responses, particularly regarding access to education, social protection, security, and employment for young people. It reiterates that ministerial functions must be perceived as responsibilities serving the nation and not as privileges.

Kay Jèn also insists on the need to place youth at the heart of public policies. Often confronted with unemployment, insecurity, and a lack of opportunities, young people nevertheless continue, according to the organization, to carry the hope of the country.

In this perspective, the organization calls on the new authorities to orient their actions around respect for human rights, transparency in public management, citizen participation, especially that of young people and women, as well as public policies capable of reducing inequalities and strengthening social cohesion.

Finally, Kay Jèn affirms that it will remain mobilized and vigilant to continue defending fundamental rights and to carry the voice of Haitian youth, believing that «the time for promises is over; it is time for responsible and inclusive action».
