Doctor Chrispin calls for reform of the Haitian state

Dr. Jean Willio Patrick Chrispin published an editorial on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, in which he argues for a profound reform of the Haitian state in the face of security, institutional, and economic crises. In his text titled "Haïti à l’heure de la rupture: bâtir la paix, la sécurité et la renaissance nationale," Chrispin calls on the authorities to make courageous political decisions to transform public institutions.

Security

Dr. Chrispin emphasizes that restoring security is a priority. He recommends strengthening the Haitian National Police (PNH) and the Armed Forces of Haiti (FAd'H). According to him, the authority of the state must be re-established throughout the territory, particularly in areas affected by violence.

International Cooperation

He also insists on the necessity for any foreign assistance to strengthen the capacities of Haitian institutions and respect their national sovereignty.

State Reform

Chrispin considers it crucial to combat corruption and impunity to restore the functioning of the state. He calls for a public administration based on integrity, discipline, and accountability.

Economic Recovery

On the economic front, he advocates for increased support for agriculture and the revitalization of domestic trade in order to achieve food self-sufficiency. He also highlights the role of the Haitian diaspora in public decisions and development strategies.

Call for Unity

Finally, he invites all political and social actors to overcome their divisions to form a national front around the higher interests of Haiti.
