The Equilibrist Platform Proposes an Interministerial Commission to Ensure a Successful Back-to-School Period

Set for October 1st, the start of the school year is uncertain in Haiti due to the security and humanitarian crisis. In this regard, considering education as a driver of peace and stability, the Equilibrist Platform proposes an interministerial commission to effectively plan this year's back-to-school period.

Indeed, in a public statement, the platform calls on the government to establish an interministerial commission to ensure a successful 2025-2026 school year start.

According to the platform, this commission must be composed of representatives from the Prime Minister's Office, several ministries including National Education, Justice and Public Security, and the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor.

This structure will be tasked with implementing official instructions related to education, supporting vulnerable families, securing school zones, and rehabilitating roads leading to educational institutions.

Just days before the start of the school year, parents continue to complain. They cite financial difficulties preventing them from preparing their children for the return to school.
