Haiti Salon, an initiative developed by a seven member committee, is about convening people toward furthering justice, peace and democracy in Haiti.

Haiti Salon is founded on the value of open, inclusive and respectful participation. Its purpose is to play the role of facilitator in creating conditions that foster:

• Understanding, tolerance and trust
• Dialogue, learning & networking
• Democratic practices
• More informed decision-making and improved collaboration
• Information Sharing

Haiti Salon endorses the concepts presented in the “Principles of Healthy Democracy in Haiti” created by the Haitian-American Community Dialogue in February 2004.

Haiti Salon convenes people using formats like Open Space, which reflect these values and make them concrete.
