The project "Peace Dividend Marketplace-Haiti" has completely ceased its activities in Haiti this Friday 30 June 2012. Launched in Port-au-Prince in August 2009, this project was funded by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) for three years for an amount of U.S. $ 5.1 million. Its goal was to create jobs and foster stability and economic growth in the long term in Haiti while facilitating access to goods and services available locally. The Ministry of Trade and Industry will now support this service.
