Haiti - Technology : Haiti could miss the ICT train
As part of the "World Telecommunication and Information Society Day" celebrated around the theme "Towards a positive use of artificial intelligence for social well-being" Ing. Jean David Rodney Director General of the National Council of Telecommunications (CONATEL) surrounded by several senior staff of the Council, first placed the event in its global context with regard to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as defined by the UN before talking about his record.

For their part, the CONATEL executives discussed the theme chosen against the opportunities versus the risks and threats for Haiti.

Beyond the assessment drawn up from the many achievements and initiatives included in the 5 axes of the CONATEL's updated Strategic Plan, Jean David Rodney mentioned the execrable quality of telecommunications infrastructure and deplored the lack of a normative framework to attract new investment to fill the Haitian general ownership gap in the Telecommunication Sector.

The Director Rodney warned that Haiti could miss the "Information and Communication Technologies" (ICT) train if the public authorities do not measure the real issues of global dimension associated with it in terms of progress and human development, real and sustainable.

Note that during the 3rd Edition of the International Youth Symposium, called ELAN Haiti 2018, held in Jacmel, Maarten Boute the CEO of Digicel Haiti, reacting on the quality of telecommunications infrastructure said "Haiti needs $ 1.2 billion to $ 1.4 billion in infrastructure to upgrade communication networks."
