COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE Le Conseiller-Président Smith Augustin au 16e Sommet du Leadership du NHAEON à Miami Port-au-Prince, le 31 janvier 2025 – Le Conseiller-Président Smith Augustin a participé au 16e Sommet annuel du leadership du National Haitian American Elected Officials Network (NHAEON), qui s’est tenu à Miami, en Floride, du 24 au 26 janvier 2025. Lors de cet événement réunissant des leaders influents, il est intervenu sur le rôle clé de la diaspora haïtiano-américaine dans la gouvernance, le développement économique et l’engagement civique en faveur d’Haïti. Placé sous le thème « Hope to Action: Amplifying Haitian American Voices » (De l’espoir à l’action : amplifier les voix des Haïtiens-Américains), le sommet a exploré les stratégies visant à renforcer la participation de la diaspora aux grandes décisions politiques et économiques du pays. En marge du sommet, le Conseiller-Président a rencontré des représentants colombiens lors d’un petit-déjeuner de travail pour discuter des perspectives de coopération bilatérale. Il a également rassuré la diaspora sur leur droit de vote pour le référendum et les élections à venir, les encourageant à obtenir leur carte d’identification nationale afin de participer activement au processus démocratique. Le NHAEON, plus grande coalition d’élus haïtiano-américains aux États-Unis, représente 22 États et un réseau de 170 membres engagés dans la promotion des intérêts de la communauté haïtienne. La participation du Conseiller-Président Smith Augustin à ce sommet illustre la volonté du gouvernement de transition de renforcer les liens entre Haïti et sa diaspora. Son intervention a été chaleureusement accueillie par les participants, et plusieurs leaders haïtiano-américains ont salué son engagement en faveur d’une coopération renforcée.

There are inflection points on our journeys that define entire new chapters of our lives. @nhaeon gave me the opportunity to make some of the most critical connections I needed to kick off 2025. From incredible young leaders in the Haitian diaspora to Congress members to active public servants allies to the cause of Haiti to spiritual powerhouses and influential figures in the global business and innovation community: I needed this reset button to refine how I want to leverage everything that I am today to shape how I want to engage resources towards Haiti this year. I will provide updates really soon and I look forward to your continued support. Thank you @nhaeon !
