The First Hundred Days of President Jovenel Moïse
Summary: An account of the first hundred days of Jovenel Moïse's presidency, who was sworn in on 7 February 2017 as Haiti's 58th head of state. The document is written by the executive about itself and reads that way: it reports the decisions taken and presents them as delivery on the inaugural address.
Key Findings
- Is the presidency's own account of the first 100 days after Jovenel Moïse took the oath on 7 February 2017 as Haiti's 58th head of state, published by the Presidency's communication bureau in May 2017, so it records claims rather than verified outcomes.
- Presents institutional strengthening as its lead theme, and evidences it with acts of publication and appointment: publishing all available detail on subsidies granted in Le Moniteur, the presidential decree on reducing the cost of running the state, the 2017 legislative agenda presented at the BRH convention center, and the formal handover of road maps to the ministerial cabinet.
- Records the commission set up by presidential decree to strengthen and restructure the CNE, the state equipment agency, as the answer to the structural problems obstructing its regular operation.
- Ties the equipment agency directly to the Caravane du Changement, with instructions during a 10 April 2017 visit that CNE equipment be back in working order by 1 May 2017, the caravan's launch date in the Artibonite valley.
- States that more than 150 pieces of heavy equipment recovered or repaired by the commission are in the Artibonite, the Sud and the Plateau Central carrying out works under the agriculture strategy.
- Also records a presidential commission on prison conditions, a working group on rebuilding the National Palace, the installation of the coordination council for state and public service media, and intensified work on taxpayer access to identity documents.
