“We estimate that around $120 million will be needed to finance the process, but we are confident we can mobilize those resources,” Conille stated in a national address marking his first 100 days in office.

He further explained that, with the support of governments and international partners, a common fund has been established to finance the elections. “Haiti has already contributed more than a third of the required amount to ensure the revision of the Constitution and to take significant steps toward holding the elections,” the Prime Minister added.
