Haiti appoints Wooldy Edson Louidor as ambassador to the Dominican Republic

Santo Domingo.- Haiti’s Prime Minister, Alix Didier Fils-Aimé, has named Wooldy Edson Louidor as the new ambassador to the Dominican Republic. The announcement was shared by the Zile Foundation, led by former Haitian consul Edwin Paraison, which praised Louidor’s qualifications and expertise in migration issues.

Louidor, a Haitian-Colombian researcher and professor at Pontifical Javeriana University, holds degrees in Philosophy, Social Sciences, Latin American Philosophy, and a PhD in Philology. He is recognized for his interdisciplinary approach to migration studies and has published extensively in multiple languages, including Spanish, French, Haitian Creole, English, and German.

Specializing in topics such as migration, the Caribbean, and uprooting, Louidor has conducted research across the Americas, focusing on Haitian, Colombian, and Venezuelan migration. His innovative contributions include conceptual frameworks like “sociology of uprooting” and “analogical hospitality,” which have shaped migration discourse and policy considerations.
