UNICEF announces that Maria Luisa Fornara is the new representative of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) in Haiti. She replaces Marc Vincent who spent nearly 3 1/2 in this position serving Haitian children.

Ms. Fornara arrived in Haiti on August 2, 2018, after three years of service as UNICEF Representative in Peru. There, she managed the design and implementation of the 2017-2021 Cooperation Program, which led Haiti, among other things, to put violence against children and adolescents at the top of the public agenda.

Maria Luisa Fornara was Deputy Representative of UNICEF in Tunisia and Serbia. She has extensive experience working in international cooperation. She has been program officer at the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), a consultant for the World Bank in Lebanon, and a researcher at the United Nations Interregional Crime and Justice Research Institute (UNICRI). From 2009 to 2015, she represented UNICEF Tunisia where she helped to focus national efforts on public policies to promote and protect the rights of Tunisian children.

Italian-born, Ms. Fornara is fluent in Italian, English, French and Spanish and also has basic knowledge of Arabic.
