Nan batay pou dwa fanm, travay nou se:

In the fight for women's rights, our work is:

Metsin anmè

Fanm lakay pap janm sispann soufri toutotan yo pa mete tet ansanm epi fe solidarite pou yo voye fanm nan pouvwa a. Si nap gade ki jan toupatou fanm nap soufri nou soufri tout kalite maladi. Le nou di maladi se pa selman doule men se tout pwoblem desepsyon, mize, chomaj, kadejak, baton, diskriminasyon, elatriye. Si n ta pran egzanp eleksyon k sot pase a gouvenman an ak KEP a vle fen vale you metsin chwal ki ame pase fyel bef men nou semante ke kou sa a pap pase. Yo vle kontwole sitiyasyon an pou yo ka bay rezilta pa yo. Se poutet sa yo mete yon fanm nan dezyem tou se paske yo gade fanm tankou bannan mi - sa vle di yo pi feb depi yo komanse bal presyon lap fe bak. Le sa a yap jwen posiblite pou yo mete moun yo vle a. Le sa a fanm yo pral soufri pi plis. Dwa fanm yo pa respekte se pou sa nou vle pou ta gen fanm fò nan pouvwa a. Si se mesye sa a yo rele Jude Celestin an ki ta vi n pezidan tout fanm nan peyi a pral tounen tochon pye. Nou vle pou le mond antye konnen mesye sa a pap nan avantaj peyi a sitou pou fanm yo.

Bitter medicine

The women of Haiti will never stop suffering until they put their heads together in solidarity and bring a woman into power. If we look at how women everywhere are suffering, we suffer from every kind of ailment. And when I say ailment I don't mean just those that cause us physical harm, but every kind of problem - disappointment, misery, unemployment, rape, violence, discrimination, etc. If we take the example of the elections that just took place, the government and CEP are trying to make us swallow the most bitter medicine but we refuse to take it. They want to control the situation in order to get the result they want. This is why they have put a woman into the run off, because they see women as soft, as weak, as soon as they begin to pressure her she’ll retreat. And when she does they have the opportunity to put in power candidate they really want. As a result women will suffer even more. Women’s rights are not respected and that’s why we need a strong woman in power. If it’s this man, Jude Celestin, who becomes our president, the women of this country will become the dirt under his feet. We want the entire world to know that he will not help our country and least of all its women.

Sitiyasyon nou vin pi grav

Fanm nan kan yo di, nou konstate depi aprè rezilta eleksyon an sitiyasyon yo vin pi grav kote plis pitit pèp la kontinye ap mouri, administrasyon piblik nan anpil pwovens ap kraze kote ke sa pral mete nou nan rekomanse toutan. Dejouranjou pwoblèm nou menm fanm nan kan yo ap vin pi di, apre reziltaeleksyon you nou resevwa kout woch, kout boutèy, kote ke vye tant nou konn domi yo fin chire pandan yap revandike pou pouvwa, nou menm fanm nou kontinye ap viktim, peyi a bloke, nou pa gen anyen poun bay pitit nou. Kesyon nap poze, èske politisyen sa yo ap goumen pou pouvwa chanje sitiyasyon pèp la oubyen pou yo chanje sitiyasyon poch yo.

Our situation deteriorates

We women in the camps have seen that since the elections results were released our situation has only gotten worse. The children of Haiti continue to die, government offices in many provinces are being torn down and it means we are back in the position of starting over, over and over again. Each day, the struggle of women in the camps gets harder. After the electoral results we feel the blow of every rock that’s thrown, every bottle. The tattered tents we sleep in are torn as they fight for power and we the women continue to be victims. The country has come to a halt. We have nothing to give our children. The question we ask is, are politicians fighting for power to change the situation for the people of Haiti or merely to fill their own pockets?

Once again, violence against women continues
A man killed his wife at the Starmart gas station in Martissant on Sunday, because he did not come home Saturday night. The woman stayed at Starmart all night thinking that the man went to Malpasse to bring merchandise for a group of vendors. She saw her husband pull in and came closer to see and the car was empty. She asked the man where he had slept. The man swung the car door open to hit the poor woman, knocking her to the floor. He then turned the wheel and ran over her, killing her.

Kote moun ap dòmi

Kote n'ap gade la se kote moun ap dòmi. kote sa se kote yo fè depo chabon pou vann, se la moun yo oblije dòmi ki menm pa bon pou sante yo ki se pousyè chabon an fè li fè yo malad nan sèvo yo. depi tranbleman de tè a fin pase se konsa sityasyon moun sa yo ye jouk jounen jodia.

Where people are sleeping

This is one of the places people have been sleeping. It's a spot where charcoal is collected and sold but there is now a camp around it. People sleep here even though the charcoal dust makes them sick in the sinuses and is terrible for their health. This has been the situation every since earthquake.

Klinik anba moso prela

Ti moso prela sa n'ap gade la li pote non Klinik. li sitiye bizoton 53,nan yon kan ki rele pak chabon. Se yon kote moun yo te konn vann chabon, lè tranbleman de tè fini pase se la moun ki gen kay kraze yo vin mete moso prela pou yo te ka pare lapli ak solèy e se la yo dòmi tou. Lè timoun yo kòmanse malad gen de twa enfimyè kap viv nan menm sit sa, yo te gen kèk materyèl yo vini avèk yo anba ti bout prela sa n'ap gade la epi yo fè yon klinik. Yo pa salè se paske yon gen volonte e yo se manman pitit ki fè yo vinn bay èd yo. Yo pa menm gen ase materyèl pou yo sèvi tout timoun nan kan sa.

Clinic under a tarp

The little piece of tarp you see here is a clinic. It’s located in Bizoton 53 in a camp called Charcoal Park. It’s a place where people used to sell charcoal but after the earthquake people gathered here and set up tents to protect them from the sun and rain, to sleep. When children started to get sick, there were 3 nurses that lived there who had some basic supplies and they came together under this tarp to start a clinic. The have no funding and have done this of their own will. They too are mothers and understood that other people’s children were in need. They don’t have enough supplies to treat all of the children in the camp.

A Child Raped

We want to tell you something that happened on Sunday, November 7. I went out to go see a friend who was ill. I left one of my children with a neighbor who lives nearby and my neighbor’s son raped her. When I came back, I found her crying. As I looked at her and asked her what happened, I saw her underwear was covered in blood. My daughter is just five years old.

Theft is a serious problem in Haiti
One of the reasons we are experiencing high rates of theft is that after the earthquake many young men have escaped from the prisons and now have no work and no income. They turn to theft to sustain themselves and this poses a serious problem for the population. They hold us up at gunpoint, take what we have and we have no security during the day or night.

Electoral violence
On Saturday November 6th, the presidential candidate for Preval’s party came to Mosolee camp to distribute money and there was a lot of violence. The people campaigning for him threatened us by saying that if we didn’t go and vote for him that they would set our camp on fire and shoot us. They gave 100 Haitian dollars to each person who said they would go vote. There are people with guns in our neighborhood and we have no security. We can’t hold elections.

Demokrasi an ayiti.

An ayiti nou pa gen sa yo rele demokrasi a. Lè nou pran 12 janvye anpil moun ki nan la ri a toujou , pa gen okenn konsène nan peyi a ki di anyen ak ti rès moun ki vivan yo . Yo fè kòmsi yo pa konnen sak te pase a , epi yap pale de eleksyon eske la gen demokrasi vre?

Democracy in Haiti
In Haiti we don’t have what people call democracy. Look at what happened on January 12th and we still have tons of people living in the streets. No one in the government cares about those of us who survived. They act as if they don't know what happened and they are talking about elections. Is this really democracy?

Election problem in Haiti
It was November 1st around 6 in the evening. I was sitting in front of my house and a marching band was passing by campaigning for a candidate. However, there were five escaped prisoners in the crowd. They suspected that the police were doing random checks and they were scared because they were carrying weapons. They took off running and broke the chair in front of my door as they tried to evade the police.

Agents from Cite Soleil. Thank you.

Evade prizon

Evade prizon yo se ravaj yap fe nan Matisan. Se rantre nan kay moun fe kadejak sou fi ak ti fi vole piye sa moun genyen.

Escaped Prisoners
The escaped prisoners are terrorizing Martissant. They enter people’s homes, rape women and young girls, and steal whatever people have.

Women Attacked

It was September 30, the day of the 19th Anniversary of KONAMAVID, and we organized a protest in front of the Ministry of Justice to demand justice for all women victims. Since then we have been threatened repeatedly and live in constant fear. We sleep in different locations every night. We ask that they look into our case but to no avail. We demand justice and reparation for all women.

Problem of Injustice
There are 700 people at Mosolee Camp. There are 3 toilets and 1 shower. When we women need to use them, we have to stand for a long time waiting for the men. There is no security, no electricity, there are many bandits living in the camps. They sometimes threaten us and attack us. There is one little clinic where we go for consultation; we have to buy the medications somewhere else.
