Investing in Haiti, we focus primarily on women solidaire.Invest for tourism in Haiti, we Rely Primarily on women for responsible tourism.Fanm Poto Mitan is "(the woman is the center post).

It may sound utopian to some. We receive weekly requests, here is one of her that I received today:

"A Chandlery would be welcome ... There was also a place
take in quality construction of pedal boats, dinghies, sailboats .... I could
provide you with the necessary land by way of participation .... "

Making cotton shirts in Les Cayes and many more.

Certainly, and I am confident that the people of Haiti will come out with the support of investors, and people who believe and willing to undertake. This is not a sudden donations we help this population, but by guiding them towards self, their example. They know that they exist, they would love to, but do not have the framework to achieve this and tend to think that the revenue is profit. For these reasons, we will introduce micro-credit and know-how out of control.

When we talk about responsible tourism, we must understand, renovating houses, homestays, local cuisine, offering women often alone and without income, to receive tourists united in their homes, we will help decorate and to develop them. No way for us to make a commercial transaction or of the assistantship. But they may also contribute to local development, crafts, garden, selling fruit and vegetables, and local souvenirs, shells and other treasures of the pearl of the Caribbean.

Help so many women in poverty is a goal for us so that their children can attend school, but also develop them because I think many of them deserves. And especially the claws come out somewhat "macho" of some Haitians. It is no coincidence that we have many women to want to travel to Haiti during our trip in January 2011. To see the connections (more than 6000) on travel good plan, no doubt that this formula very interested in the world.

These "friendly" (that is a term used by Bob anything derogatory from him worry you) must meet certain criteria so they can be supported by our program. Because it is several groups of villages that we began to help them live and grow. Far from the capital, and its wickedness, if you are talking about hole environment, Kaikok, Ms. Bernard, Canobie, La Hatt, the islet Orange, Moutques, a completely deserted island off St Louis South would know you located? Yet all that exists.

Yet thus we started, aided by our friend Bob ANGLADE "Haitian" gardens of sea Zangla, who knows all the ins and outs, and is willing to put us land available to develop our projects. But there are other associations that are hard at work. It's never too late to join us. Welcome to our home. But beware! no mass tourism with all its excesses. We will be very vigilant about this.

  1. Dear Rene,
    Your project is very ambitious. The most interesting of all, not to be discouraged by skeptics. In fact, everything you've done so far is the result of audacity to dare to do what others are afraid even to imagine. Congratulations! This is the kind of tourism, it is this type of investment in human favors balanced trade that you defend. Be true to yourself and everything will be as you started, very good!

    • Hello Renos,

      Yes this is ambitious, but we will not be alone on such a project, of course. Other small groups like ours, are interested in such development, and see all the messages I receive, it's not just associations elsewhere.
      Well we Renos and very soon I hope
      René
