Creating Digital Opportunities in Haiti through AI

Haiti is at a pivotal moment when digital transformation is essential, not optional.

In this context, the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) approved the Technical Cooperation (TC) Program to Create Digital Opportunities in Haiti through AI (ProAI) in 2025 to pilot the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) across the country. ProAI aims to transform AI from a conceptual idea into a practical tool for economic growth, public sector modernization and innovation within the Haitian ecosystem.

How Does
It Work?

Step 1

Preparation

We lay the foundations of the program through a structured kickoff process. This phase includes stakeholder alignment meetings, development of work plans, branding and communication setup, engagement of training and community partners, and the design of curricula and community activity plans aligned with international AI standards.

Step 2

Implementation

ProAI comes to life through its official launch ceremony, followed by the rollout of hands-on community activities and structured training programs. Participants engage in practical learning, peer exchanges, and real-world use cases, while continuous assessments ensure quality, relevance and progress throughout the program.

Step 3

MEL

At the end of each cycle, the program undergoes a comprehensive evaluation to measure outcomes, capture lessons learned and document impact. These insights inform improvements, strengthen sustainability and guide the next phases of ProAI.
