Candidate-trainees in 2018
The Haiti Democracy Project’s women-candidates organization, le Régroupment National des Femmes Candidates, will meet in Port-au-Prince on January 25. The sixty future candidates will review the past year and plan for greatly increasing the women’s contingent in parliament and local government. Only four of 149 members of the just-expired parliament were women, although there were supposed to be 30 percent.
