From a young boy growing up in Haiti, living with no electricity or running water, my journey to Hollywood has been rich with experience. I take little for granted and appreciate the beauty of life, knowing that there is so much more to learn.

While Haiti has recently celebrated more than 200 years of independence from French colonial rule, the citizens of the island remain vulnerable to poverty, poor health, and political chaos.
Alberto Melloni
Well, we`ve worked with our friends in Haiti to establish nothing short of a modern medical center in one of the poorest parts of that country.
Paul Farmer
We certainly can never ignore the day-to-day problems of a Haiti, or a Bosnia, but for the longer term, we need to set up transnational institutions.
Warren Christopher
We all would like to see a brighter future for Haiti, and I hope this conference will serve to explore many views. Respect for human rights, freedom, and the rule of law must be established in the poorest nation in our hemisphere.

This election marks a significant moment in Haiti; it not only serves as the basis of hope along the road to democracy, but also serves as a testament to the resolve and character of the Haitian people during their long struggle for peace, reconciliation,...
Allen Perry
The stakes are very high for us in Haiti. We have many important interests there. Perhaps the most important to me is our interest in the promotion of democracy in this hemisphere.
Warren Christopher
Since I do not believe that there should be different recommendations for people living in the Bronx and people living in Manhattan, I am uncomfortable making different recommendations for my patients in Boston and in Haiti.

Paul Farmer has helped to build amazing health care system in one of the poorest areas of Haiti. He founded Partners in Health, which serves the destitute and the sick in many parts of the world from Haiti to Boston and from Russia to Peru.

It was apparent from the early 80s that in order to do something lasting and significant in Haiti we would need a springboard in the States.
Paul Farmer
I never planned on doing a book about Paul Farmer or his organization. I met him in Haiti when I was on a magazine assignment. It`s almost like his story sort of fell in my lap.

Haiti itself was also photographed, some of the streets, some of the mountains, rivers, streams, etc. were photographed before talking with me about how I felt about Haiti. Then the camera went to our voodoo temple and saw a serious ceremony, a real cerem...

For the kind of thing that we were showing, the budget was sufficient. As we were speaking of in Haiti, we had not done that before in exactly this form and we had to have costumes for it.
Katherine Dunham
Civil and political rights are critical, but not often the real problem for the destitute sick. My patients in Haiti can now vote but they can`t get medical care or clean water.
Paul Farmer
Basically the only thing that can alter Haiti`s projection is to put it under some OAS or U.N. total supervision, something akin to a trusteeship.

At the same time, it is obvious that clinicians in Haiti are faced with different, and, in fact, greater, challenges when attempting to treat complications of HIV disease.
