To recap, the PESIC was launched in 2012 by the Delegation of the European Union (EU), together with the Haitian Center for Support and Promotion of Enterprises (CHAPE) in order to boost the cultural sector.

This program was funded to the tune of €1 million, of which 90% came from the European Union, or €900,000. Other €100.000 were a contribution of CHAPE and its co-seekers.

It spread over a period of 2 years and covered all the national territory through activities in the ten departments of the country. The PESIC followed the ARCADE, a program that was implemented between 2011 and 2013 by the Ministry of Culture and funded by the European Union. https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-2461-haiti-reconstruction-5-million-for-the-art-and-culture-sector.html
