Planning and External Cooperation Minister Sandra Paulemon is looking to tighten coordination of international aid and better align foreign partners’ work with national priorities. She raised the issue on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, in a working session with the ambassadors of Switzerland and Brazil, the two countries that co-chair the Technical Partners’ Consultation (CTP).<\/p>\n
Talks focused on organizing a review of the cooperation portfolio, using a sector-by-sector approach that brings together the relevant ministries and technical and financial partners under the coordination of the Ministry of Planning and External Cooperation (MPCE). Participants also discussed strengthening the governance of the CTP, seen as a key forum for dialogue between Haitian institutions and international donors.<\/p>\n
Paulemon presented the steps her ministry has taken to structure aid coordination and develop a national external cooperation policy. She notably raised the possibility of creating an International Development Cooperation Fund to complement existing financing mechanisms. The minister also urged partners to rally more strongly behind the National Program for Stabilization and Economic, Social and Territorial Recovery (PNSREST).<\/p>\n
Praising the commitment of Switzerland and Brazil, the MPCE head highlighted their expertise in areas including local development, governance, family farming, food security, public health and vocational training. She proposed a roadmap to strengthen collaboration between the MPCE and the CTP, identify priority sectors and set up a system to monitor projects funded through international cooperation. The stated goal is to make foreign aid more coherent, better coordinated and more responsive to the needs of the Haitian people.<\/p>\n
