"Shaping Peace together the theme of this day, emphasizes the role that each of us is called to play in building a Haitian society based on harmony and respect for rights and freedoms. Let's learn to live fraternally without exclusivity.

Whatever our divergencies, whatever our differences, we must live and work together to establish this climate of Peace so desired by our ancestors. Peace, the engine of economic and social development of any society.

Minister Menos, encourages all Haitians to shape this Peace for a new culture of Human Rights."

In a note from the United Nations in Haiti, the same day, "[...] The Haitian context has been marked for several months by an upsurge in acts of violence that manifest themselves in different forms and affect various communities. The United Nations in Haiti wants to take this opportunity to invite all components of Haitian society to adopt the principles of the culture of peace, non-violence and respect for human rights. It encourages actors, especially young people, women and men to work together to build a society that evolves in peace, thus offering an environment favorable to sustainable development."
