  • “I Wait for Me”: Visualizing the Absence of the Haitian Revolution in Cinematic Text by Jude Ulysse a Thesis Submitted in C
    “I wait for me”: Visualizing the Absence of the Haitian Revolution in Cinematic Text By Jude Ulysse A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Social Justice Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto 2017 ABSTRACT “I wait for me” Visualizing the Absence of the Haitian Revolution in Cinematic Text Doctor of Philosophy Department of Social Justice Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto 2017 In this thesis I explore the memory of the Haitian Revolution in film. I expose the colonialist traditions of selective memory, the ones that determine which histories deserve the attention of professional historians, philosophers, novelists, artists and filmmakers. In addition to their capacity to comfort and entertain, films also serve to inform, shape and influence public consciousness. Central to the thesis, therefore, is an analysis of contemporary filmic representations and denials of Haiti and the Haitian Revolution. I employ a research design that examines the relationship between depictions of Haiti and the country’s colonial experience, as well as the revolution that reshaped that experience. I address two main questions related to the revolution and its connection to the age of modernity. The first concerns an examination of how Haiti has contributed to the production of modernity while the second investigates what it means to remove Haiti from this production of modernity. I aim to unsettle the hegemonic understanding of modernity as the sole creation of the West. The thrust of my argument is that the Haitian Revolution created the space where a re-articulation of the human could be possible.

  • USAID/Haiti GERE Fact Sheet
    USAID/HAITI PROJECT SUPPORTING THE EFFICIENT MANAGEMENT OF STATE RESOURCES (GERÉ) FACT SHEET January 2020 OVERVIEW Duration: February 2019 - February 2022 Prime Implementor: RTI International Sub-Partners: IFOS and CFET Geographic Focus: North, West, and South International Patrick for Adams RTI BACKGROUND Credit: Credit: For decades now, Haiti has sought to build lasting democracy founded on the rule of law, good governance, accountability, inclusive economic and political participation, and the effective, inclusive and equitable management of the country's resources. These aspirations have long been thwarted by political instability, a culture of endemic corruption, and centralization of power and resources within the central government in Port-au-Prince to the detriment of rural communities and populations. All of these factors have contributed to poor resource mobilization, inadequate investments, limited development and a chronic lack of basic public services for all Haitian citizens. Since July 2019, fuel shortages, protests, and restricted movements of the population have further exacerbated the country’s fragile economic situation. Funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the Supporting the Efficient Management of State Resources (GERÉ) project is a three-year project conceived from lessons learned with previous governance sector projects. GERÉ will assist the Haitian Government, both at the central and local levels, to improve good governance, transparency, accountability, decentralization and citizen participation. This will contribute to helping the Haitian government become more transparent and responsive and improve its public service delivery in healthcare, education, agriculture, energy, and modern and sustainable infrastructure. OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES GERÉ has three core objectives: 1) Support national and local government officials to manage and mobilize resources to improve service delivery.
