As part of the «Books for All» operation http://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-22139-haiti-education-more-than-200-000-books-for-school-libraries-and-uprs.html a delegation from the Ministry of National Education, chaired by Jackson Pléteau, the Minister’s Chief of Staff, met with 21 directors of the Northeast high school, in the presence of the departmental education authorities.

Fritz Jacques emphasized the importance of the book in the cross-training of young people and invited the high school directors to appreciate this initiative of the Ministry at its true value.

The aim is to set up library embryos in high schools or to reinforce existing ones for the benefit of pupils.

Director Pléteau and Brice Saintil, the Representative of the National Office of Education Partnership (ONAPE), explained to the heads of the lycée that this initiative is part of the improvement of the quality of education but also a healthy way to occupy the minds of young people.

After the Northeast, the North and Center are the last two departments that will be touched before completing this operation.
