Helping to establish a National Police Academy in Haiti

In Haiti, Canada’s support of the Formation des cadres de la police nationale project increased the professionalism of the Haitian National Police by helping to establish a National Police Academy. To date, 482 commissioners and inspectors have graduated from the Academy.

The Academy has achieved a level of autonomy when it comes to management and teaching that enables it to deliver a high-quality training program to the Haitian National Police’s commissioners and inspectors. In addition to mainstreaming and implementing gender-sensitive practices, the Academy now has a full range of policies and tools to deliver training and instruction to new recruits.
