Directions
Haiti's past was tarred by a series of governments that repressed its people. Those who spoke out against this repression were often tortured, forced into exile, or made to disappear. René Préval's government has come to power through free and fair elections, bringing hope to Haitians and the international community for a new mandate.
Please join us for the sixth session of the Haiti Working Group featuring a roundtable discussion addressing these issues and more.
