Haiti's Provisional Electoral Council Signs Memorandum of Understanding with Mexico's National Electoral Institute

The Provisional Electoral Council, through its president Jacques Desrosiers, signed a memorandum of understanding with Mexico's National Electoral Institute on Wednesday, January 28.

According to a statement published by the Haitian electoral institution on its Facebook page, through this memorandum of understanding, the two institutions intend to formalize their cooperation in various areas of the electoral system, including capacity building for electoral operators, the management and updating of the electoral register, as well as the use of technology in election management.

The two institutions commit to exchanging on crucial themes of the electoral system with mutual respect and enrichment, to build a democratic future where all votes count.

It should be noted, in parallel, that the holding of fair elections in the country is uncertain this year given the political instability and the control by criminal gangs of many areas of the country.
