“Alternative Table”: A New Proposal from Several Sociopolitical Groups as February 7, 2026 Approaches

Facing the end of the transitional presidential council's mandate, political groups and civil society organizations continue to make proposals to avoid an institutional vacuum in the country.

“Alternative Table” is a structure formed by several political groups and civil society groups such as PLATEFORME ÉQUILIBRISTE, PRENSIP, RECONSTRUIRE HAÏTI, PLATEFORME SITWAYEN ANGAJEW, ACFEL.

In a document made public on Tuesday, October 21, the signatory sociopolitical groups state that they acknowledge the absence of clear prospects for ensuring democratic continuity after February 7, that the main crises remain unresolved, and the lack of structured dialogue among the main actors.

Indeed, according to the document, the “Alternative Table” aims to bring together political, social, and citizen forces ready to work for an orderly and concerted exit from the crisis; establish a common basis for reflection, demands, and proposals upstream before the advent of February 7, 2026; and develop a credible political alternative before this date, oriented towards institutional restoration, social justice, and the return to constitutional order.

The signatories of this proposal invite all actors of good faith to join them in this endeavor to prevent the country from collapsing into chaos.

It should be noted that this proposal is signed by more than a dozen political and civil society organizations: Plateforme Équilibriste, Convention Bois Caïman, Hamad, Panogaa, Afsodne, Ocpafev, PRENSIP, RECONSTRUIRE HAÏTI, PLATEFORME SITWAYEN ANGAJEW, ACFEL, among others.
