Les attaques brutales contre Mirebalais menacent l’un des hôpitaux les plus essentiels d’Haïti. Si Mirebalais tombe, c’est tout le système de santé haïtien qui risque de s’effondrer. Des centaines de milliers de personnes seront privées de soins vitaux. Le monde doit agir MAINTENANT.

The brutal attacks on Mirebalais threaten one of Haiti’s most critical hospitals. If Mirebalais falls, Haiti’s health system faces collapse. Hundreds of thousands will be left without life-saving care. The world must act NOW. #Haiti #HealthCrisis #Mirebalais

I had a productive discussion with stakeholders regarding the Safe Motherhood and Reproductive Health Bill at State House.

I acknowledged the concerns raised, particularly by our religious leaders, and encouraged all stakeholders, including members of Parliament, to engage in more in-depth consultations.

This bill aims to tackle one of the primary factors contributing to maternal mortality, and it is our shared responsibility to work together to reach a consensus to reduce these rates.
