All the national movements affiliated to the World Movement of Christian Workers have responded positively, quickly and with enormous generosity to the call from the International Council to launch a campaign of solidarity for the support of the Movement in Haiti. Members and supporters of the English and Welsh MCW have also responded to this call raising over £1,000. The aim of the solidarity campaign has been to enable the Movement of Christian Workers (ACO) of Haiti to have the means to rebuild itself. The money will provide a programme of education and training for leaders so that the reconstruction of Haiti is in the hands of Haitians themselves and not foreign leaders no matter how well meaning their intentions.

 

In September a small delegation of members of the movement in the Dominican Republic visited the leaders of the Haitian movement to make an assessment of the situation and to agree a plan of action for the reconstruction of the movement. Before Christmas a training session based on the review of life method will be held in the Dominican Republic for the current and new leaders of the Haitian ACO. It is thanks to the international solidarity campaign that this will be possible. The intention is to collaborate with the YCW in the Dominican Republic and Haiti in the education, formation and training of leaders. This will enable them to live their faith through a concrete engagement in the political and community groups that will need to take responsibility for the reconstruction of Haiti.
