INTER-AMERICAN HIGH-LEVEL MISSION TO ENHANCE HEMISPHERIC SUPPORT FOR HAITI
August 28, 2009
As part of Inter-American cooperation efforts of support for the Government of Haiti in terms of institutional strengthening, socio-economic development, environmental sustainability and security, the Organization of American States (OAS) has organized a high-level Inter-American Mission that will visit Haiti from September 3 - 6, 2009.
Assistant Secretary General, Ambassador Albert R. Ramdin, stated that “the mission will seek to highlight success stories, including programs supported by the international community and their impact on the development process in Haiti.” He further informed that the mission will also engage with the authorities in Haiti to further discussions on continued support of the inter-American community to Haiti.”
Senior officials from institutions of the Inter-American system including the Pan-American Health Organization (PAHO), the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA), the Pan American Development Foundation (PADF), as well as representatives of OAS Member States and OAS authorities will participate therein.
The Mission will also serve to stimulate joint efforts and initiatives by the participating institutions and draw attention to the accomplishments of the government and people of Haiti as well as the commitment of the international community to support the country’s political, economic and security environment, and to seek alignment between the agencies’ mandates and the priorities set by the Haitian authorities.
“The Inter-American mission to Haiti offers a propitious opportunity to reenergize the hemispheric cooperation with this country and to create synergies to better support its socio-economic development”, Ambassador Ramdin said.
The mission follows up on mandates from the Fifth Summit of the Americas and OAS General Assembly Resolution 2487 in support of the socio-economic development and political stability of that country. This resolution urged international lending institutions and Haiti’s partners to continue to coordinate their initiatives with the Haitian Government, with a view to maximizing outcomes through coordinated channels and procedures for the delivery of aid.
