Haiti

Bharat’s relations with Haiti have been friendly, though interaction between the two countries has been limited. Bharat established diplomatic relations with Haiti on 27 September 1996. Our High Commission in Kingston, Jamaica was concurrently accredited to Haiti. Since late 2003, the accreditation has been transferred to Embassy of India, Havana. Bharat has an Honorary Consul in Port-Au-Prince. Haiti appointed a Consul General in New Delhi in October 2014.

Capacity Building

Bharat has been offering assistance to Haiti under ITEC programme. It started with one slot in 2006-2007, which has been increased to 10 in 2015-16, 25 in 2017-18 and 15 in 2018-19. Haitian diplomats have also been taking advantage of Professional Course for Foreign Diplomats (PCFD) courses at regular intervals. Four Haitian illiterate women received training at the Barefoot College in Rajasthan in harvesting solar power.
