Meniol Jeune, the Director General of the Ministry of Education visited the members of the Education For All (EPT) committee to inquire about the functioning of this project and the ongoing or future activities of the Quality Education Project in Haiti (PEQH), carried out in partnership with the World Bank, which funds this project to the tune of $45 million.

Noting that the EPT team was responding to the Minister's orders within the framework of the contract between the Haitian state and the donors.

Meniol Jeune insisted on the mission of the Ministry to improve the quality of education and the governance of the education system. According to him, the EPT project aims to improve this quest for quality and must play its role in this direction. He was pleased with the presentations and promised to come back to follow the progress of the project.
