VISIT TO HAITI BY IDB PRESIDENT MR. ILAN GOLDFAJN

At the initiative of the Haitian Government, the President of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), Mr. Ilan GOLDFAJN, is making a two-day visit to Haiti from May 7 to 9, 2025, particularly in the North and Northeast departments. During this visit, the IDB delegation will meet with the President of the Presidential Transitional Council, His Excellency, Mr. Fritz Alphonse JEAN, to explore, among other things, the modalities of strengthened technical and financial support for Haiti during this very difficult period, which is also bringing significant changes. In a context marked by persistent structural challenges, this visit will contribute to strengthening the continuity of IDB commitments in Haiti in the areas of: education, social protection, road infrastructure, drinking water, governance, public administration, culture, and local development. Sectoral meetings and field visits to ongoing projects will allow for the evaluation and revitalization of collaboration, particularly with a view to relaunching regional cooperation. The IDB delegation will also discuss with government representatives from vital sectors benefiting from the bank's support. The Haitian Government reaffirms its determination to work in the interest of the Haitian people and to mobilize the necessary resources aimed at strengthening key sectors to meet the urgent needs of the population.
