Une grande panoplie d’activités éducatives, créatives et ludiques sont programmées pour le plus grand bien des enfants. Ils auront droit à des ateliers de : peinture, crochet, macramé, langue des signes, théãtre, lecture, échec, etc. Dans un contexte aussi traumatogène où la violence est monnaie courante, de telles initiaves sont d’une importance capitale. " Les enfants ne sont pas imperméables au stress et autres pathologies que peut provoquer la situation morbide qui sévit dans le pays actuellement", souligne Blondy Wolf Leblanc (Gabynho) DG a.i de ACTIF. "Espace Lajwa se veut donc, un refuge, un lieu où les enfants peuvent s’exprimer en toute sécurité, un espace sécurisant où ils peuvent exprimer leurs émotions à travers plusieurs médiums", précise-t-il. Plus loin, l’animateur socioculturel encourage d’autres structures à travers le pays à prendre des initiatives de ce genre au bénéfice de la santé mentale des enfants. Espas Lajwa est quasiment gratuit. Un frais de participation de 150 gourdes est requis pour la semaine. Quid Kay Jèn Yo Issu du projet "Pran Swen Tèt ou", Kay Jèn Yo est un projet de l’organisation ACTIF supporté par La Perfection École de Haute Couture visant à combattre la violence par l’engagement communautaire à travers des programmes de formation professionnelle et artistique.

History of Haiti: From 1492 to 2024

Several centuries ago, in the heart of the Atlantic Ocean, an island of captivating beauty and incredible wealth, called Hispaniola, attracted the attention of the world’s powerful. Discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1492, the island became the center of covetousness. But the colonial powers did not yet know that the island concealed within it an indomitable people. The Tainos, the first inhabitants, resisted the invader with the spirit of freedom. They were crushed, but their untamed spirits persisted in the wind, in the earth, and, much later, in the dreams of the African slaves who would come. Centuries pass and, under the merciless yoke of the French colonists, the island is transformed into a vast field of sugar cane, cultivated by the hands of slaves from Africa. These men and women, deported against their will, carry within them the hope of one day freeing themselves, of breaking the chains of oppression. And it is this dream, this sacred fire, which will burst forth in a revolt so great that it will mark the history of the world forever.
