In solidarity with the Haitian people, on March 17, 2021 the Permanent Council of the Organisation of American States approved by consensus a resolution expressing concern over the grave political, security and human rights situation in Haiti and offered to send a Good Offices Mission.

An invitation was received from the Government of Haiti, and a Good Offices Mission will visit Haiti this week and meet with a range of stakeholders, including the government, opposition and civil society. The objective of the Good Offices Mission is to facilitate a dialogue that would lead to free and fair elections.

The Mission is composed of the permanent representatives to the OAS of Canada, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and the United States, with support from the OAS General Secretariat and the special Representative of the OAS Secretary General in Haiti.

The Mission will last three days, from June 8 - 10, 2021.
