The prime minister visited Aquin, Camp-Perrin, Les Cayes and Petit-Goâve from August 13 to 15, 2026.
Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé traveled through Haiti's grand Sud from August 13 to 15, 2026, on an official tour centered on education, health, the environment and preparations for the coming general elections, according to Le Nouvelliste. From Aquin to Petit-Goâve, and passing through Camp-Perrin and Les Cayes, the head of government held a series of inaugurations and meetings with local populations, along with local and religious authorities, the outlet reported. The tour began in Aquin, where the prime minister inaugurated the École Baptiste de Melinette, which the report indicated had been destroyed by an earthquake. Le Nouvelliste framed the visit within a broader national conversation about restoring the conditions needed to hold elections, noting related developments including the Organization of American States' announced technical support for the electoral registry. Further details of the tour were behind the outlet's paywall and could not be independently confirmed here. The visit comes as Haitian authorities weigh the logistics and timeline for the next general elections.
