FONDATION J'AIME HAITI YOUR OPINION WANTED: People with disabilities are often called 'KOKOBE' in Haiti. This term is very disparaging and carries serious negative connotations. As part of an overall awareness campaign, do you believe that the term 'KOKOBE' should be rehabilitated or a new term, such as 'MOUN ANDIKAPE,' be favored?

KOKOBE sounds very hard. However, we are to remember that certain word in creole sounds heavily...James Cadet is right and have used the proper explanation for us to try not to use that word vaguely...when you are disable does not mean that you are dead and there is nothing left for you in this world...I deal with this kind of people on a daily basis, believe the come first in my line of work...

1) Provide free scholastic materials for students, like books, notebooks, etc. 2) Also, it would help to provide free breakfast and/or lunch in low-income schools. 3) Better pay for teachers. All that would obviously require $, however it's worth investing in education. This investment has been put aside for too many years, because of fiscal corruption and waste.
I was fortunate enough to attend private institutions, but I know many children did not/ do not have that opportunity.
