Since the beginning of the year, signals directed toward Solino have multiplied. On March 26, the Minister of Planning and External Cooperation, Sandra Paulemon, met with representatives of the “Retour au Quartier – Solino” project, following a roadmap set by Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé. On April 17, an interministerial delegation led by the Minister of Youth, Sports and Civic Action, Pythagore Dumas, toured the area accompanied by officials from DINEPA, the Port-au-Prince City Hall, and Civil Protection, in order to assess the damage and guide interventions. In the press, figures are beginning to circulate: one thousand homes to rebuild, several thousand young people to be trained in construction trades. Streetlights have been announced. A governmental will exists. That is already something.

What remains is the question that no visit, no announcement, and no statement has yet clearly asked: do we know what we are undertaking?
