Santo Domingo.- To present Dominican society the diverse government proposals from the main candidates to Haiti’s presidency, the Global Foundation for Democracy and Development (FUNGLODE) has organized a cycle of conferences with those hopefuls.

The initiative arose under the premise that the neighboring country’s political, economic and social destiny will be defined by the vision of those who assume the reins of government for the next term in office.

“That’s the reason for the spread and discussion of the proposals from the candidates and which form a fundamental part of the concerns not only for the Haitian nation, but which also extend into Dominican Republic,” FUNGLODE said in an emailed statement.

It said the cycle, which began August 31, continues at 7 p.m. today with the Leslie Voltaire, in the entity’s auditorium.
