The Port-au-Prince City Hall wishes to emphasize the importance of this date, which aims to defend human dignity and recall the various struggles against oppression that have taken place throughout the world; especially in our own country, where our ancestors fought to create the first independent Black republic the world has ever known. A land where freedom reigns supreme.

This commemoration reminds us of the universal need for justice and respect for human rights, so that we can protect fundamental freedoms.

The municipal administration wishes to remind us that it is a collective duty to preserve individual freedom, which is why we have built our society on these values: liberty, equality, fraternity. These principles guide us in building a society rooted in respect, solidarity, and civic responsibility.

Today, faced with numerous social, economic, and security challenges, it is essential to strengthen our shared commitment to ensuring that everyone lives in dignity. The municipal administration invites every citizen to integrate these values ​​into all their actions, into community life, and into all the choices we make together for a better future.

"Together, let us cultivate a spirit of resilience and cohesion, and take responsibility for ensuring that our society retains the fundamental ethical principles that make it what it is."
