According to agronomist Jean Véa Dieudonné, Deputy Project Manager of the Welthungerhilfe , the objective of this seminar for workers of the Press, was to give journalists the tools needed to increase public awareness to reduce losses in human life in case of natural disasters. He hopes that after this training, participants will have more capacity in the collection and treatment information related to these situations. In his speech, Jacques Phillipe Jovin, Consultant to the DPC and also one of the trainers of the seminar, declared, that currently Haiti represented a gateway to natural climatic events. He explained the crucial role that the press should play in raising awareness of the population to such situations.

For his part, the engineer Jacques Pierre Jean, the Director General of Radio Télé Express Continentale (RTEC) of Jacmel , also an instructor at the seminar, intervened on techniques of coverage of events in crisis situation and focused on the lexical field that journalists must master during the coverage of such events, to avoid doing more harm to the population through the information disseminated.

Alain Pierre, Secretary General of the AJSE, stated that this serie of training was part of an approach of the AJSE, to strengthen the capacity of journalists in the region to enable them to intervene effectively in these situations often very complex.
