Single Uniform for Students in Public Schools

In a note, the Ministry of National Education and Vocational Training "informs the public in general and the education community in particular that, by presidential decree, signed by the Cabinet March 18, 2015, it was decided that students in public schools, both of fundamental and secondary levels, now will wear the same uniform from the academic year 2015-2016.

This decision answers, among others, to the sake of integration, equal treatment and safety of all students of national schools and high schools of the Republic. It will also reduce the cost of purchasing uniforms for the State and families.

The Ministry requests at all educational agents to make all the arrangements for the full implementation of this measure, starting next school year."

Also last Thursday at the second meeting of the forum of former Haitian Ministers of Education, Nesmy Manigat, the Minister of National Education, in reference to this note, said that this decision was not imposed on private schools, but stressed, having encouraged them to adopt this measure.

Haiti Airspace Improvement Project Finally Complete

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) and Airbus ProSky announced completion of a joint project to modernize the airspace efficiency of flight paths and operations between Haiti's Port-au-Prince and Cap-Haitien International Airports. Conducted in collaboration with Haiti's Office National de L'Aviation Civile (OFNAC), the modernization project implements a new airspace design that incorporates Performance-Based Navigation (PBN) systems and procedures, accordion to IATA.

The project was launched following the earthquake that hit Haiti in 2010, damaging the country's aviation infrastructure. Air France, American Airlines and JetBlue also participated in the airspace redesign project, which will improve safety, efficiency and flight times as well as reduce CO2 emissions.    "The collaboration among all parties was relying on constant operational exchanges between airline pilots and OFNAC controllers — resulting in designs that will increase efficiency and enhance safety within the Haitian airspace. All of the stakeholders should be applauded for their ability to work together in a manner which will benefit each of them," said Rafael Alonso-Nivez, regional director of Latin America and Caribbean at Airbus ProSky.
