Haiti is currently navigating a series of significant events and initiatives that highlight both challenges and opportunities. The National Civil Aviation Office (OFNAC), led by Director General Réginald Guignard, is actively promoting aviation career awareness among young Haitians. OFNAC recently conducted its first school presentation to inspire students to explore the diverse opportunities within the aviation sector. This initiative aims to cultivate a new generation of professionals in this vital industry. Meanwhile, the Ministry of National Education has announced the temporary closure of schools in five departments—West, Nippes, Southeast, South, and Grand’Anse—due to a red alert. This precautionary measure, effective from October 29, 2025, is intended to ensure public safety until the alert is lifted. Additionally, Hurricane Melissa has prompted the Presidential Transitional Council to declare October 29 as a non-working day for schools and businesses, allowing the population to prepare for and mitigate the hurricane’s potential impacts. On the economic front, the General Directorate of Taxes (DGI) reported collecting 70 billion gourdes, aligning with fiscal year 2024-2025 projections. However, DGI Director General Romuald Petit expressed concern over the relocation or closure of 21 tax collection points due to security issues. In a positive development, France has reaffirmed its commitment to supporting Haitian women and girls through its feminist diplomacy. At the 4th Ministerial Conference on Feminist Diplomacy in Paris, France pledged continued support for over 50 Haitian organizations via the PISCCA program, funded by the Team France 2025 Fund. Furthermore, French Ambassador Antoine Michon recently convened a meeting with representatives of French NGOs operating in Haiti to address challenges in education, health, humanitarian aid, sustainable development, and security.
