The EDE party inaugurates a Conference Room named after Me Monferrier Dorval

The Monferrier Dorval conference room was inaugurated this Thursday, August 28, 2025, by the Engaged for Development party (EDE).

This initiative is taken to honor Professor Dorval, a major figure in law in Haiti, the party leader announced.

According to Claude Joseph, through this act, EDE has chosen to perpetuate the memory of the man of law through a space dedicated to reflection, citizen dialogue, and training. “This conference room aims to be an open place, faithful to the ideals of justice, rigor, and democracy that Me Dorval defended.”

“Through this symbolic gesture, EDE pays tribute to the man, the thinker, the professor, and affirms its commitment to republican values and the rule of law,” wrote the party leader.

The ceremony took place in the presence of party executives, sympathizers, and friends.

Me Monferrier Dorval, president of the Port-au-Prince Bar Association, was assassinated on August 28, 2020. A renowned jurist, highly esteemed professor, and committed thinker, he left his mark on the country's intellectual life.
