The 6th Haitian Youth Symposium
The 6th Haitian Youth Dialogue was organized on August 8 by the Haitian youth group KOZE JEN YO with the support of the Peace and Development Advisers (PDA) department. It was a public debate among young people with the aim of adopting a declaration on the Haitian Youth Agenda in the political transition period.
