The Coalition
How DEBOUT PATRIOTES organises itself to decide together without erasing any of its members.
Notre fonctionnement
DEBOUT PATRIOTES is a coalition, not a merger. Each of the eleven member parties keeps its name, its bodies and its freedom of speech.
Our common bodies have only one role: to set the shared vision, coordinate action and speak with one voice on matters that commit the Nation.
Each member party has one vote in the Assembly of member parties, whatever its size. This is the condition for trust between us.
Our bodies
Six levels, from the most sovereign to the closest to the ground.
The sovereign body of the coalition. It brings together the delegations of the eleven parties, sets the shared vision and orientations, approves the programme and appoints the General Coordination. One vote per member party.
The executive of the coalition between assemblies. It implements decisions, represents DEBOUT PATRIOTES externally and leads the work of the secretariats.
The backbone of the coalition: internal organisation, follow-up of decisions, relations with local structures, archives and administration.
The public voice of the coalition: press releases, media relations, social networks, website and materials for activists.
In-depth work on each of the programme’s priorities. They bring together officials of the member parties, experts and people from the sectors concerned.
The coalition’s presence on the ground, in the ten departments and the communal sections: local roots, mobilisation, feedback on local realities.
The people in charge of each body will be named on this page as soon as they are appointed by the Assembly of member parties.
Each priority of the programme is developed by a dedicated commission, open to expertise from outside the coalition.
Security doctrine, police reform, criminal justice chain, judicial independence.
Public administration, decentralisation, transparency, fight against corruption.
Agriculture, businesses, jobs, energy, public finances.
Schools, training, primary healthcare, water, social protection, housing.
International cooperation, borders, resources, diaspora.
Elections, youth, women, civil society, freedom of the press.
Reforestation, risks, sanitation, land-use planning.
The coalition is built first on the ground, in the country’s ten departments and within the diaspora.
One departmental coordination per department, relayed at commune level.
Grassroots committees as close as possible to people’s daily realities.
Organised branches within Haitian communities abroad.
The thematic commissions and local coordinations welcome new skills. Yours may be the one that is missing.
