Like her, his colleague Luc Chaponneau estimated that "such training is an asset, since it will allow me to improve myself and do my job better in the respect of human rights."

8 trainers, including 6 of the Minustah and 2 of the PNH, were mobilized to provide training to 180 executives of teh PNH, men and women installed "to positions of responsibility and in a position to make use of force," explained Michel-Ange Gédéon, Departmental Director of the West (DDO) of the PNH.
