After the North and the North-West last November, Joseph Frantz Nicolas, the Director General of the National Education Fund (FNE), continued this week his inspection tour where he visited 4 other sites in the departments South, Grand-Anse and Nippes. According to initial estimates, the work should be completed for some departments in two months at the latest. A meeting is scheduled between the General Directorate of the FNE and a few site managers on December 14 to take stock of the progress of the work in the areas concerned.

In total, 25 national schools are under construction hhttps://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-31367-haiti-diaspora-25-schools-under-construction-financed-by-the-fne.html in 7 departments .
