The Institute of Social Work and Social Science (Enstiti Travay Sosyal ak Syans Sosyal) is an internationally supported degree-granting educational institution located in Haiti. We were founded in 2011 to provide social work and social science training in both theory and practice. We currently offer an undergraduate and a graduate program in Social Work; students also complete a second degree in Anthropology, Economics, Sociology, Psychology or Political Science. A Haitian Creole program is offered for students who wish to complete intensive coursework in Creole language. This program is designed for researchers, students and development workers who anticipate depending on Haitian Creole as their primary means of communication.

 From November 7th-9th, four ETS students attended the 25th Annual Haitian Studies Association conference. Marie Bettie Pierre presented her research on adolescent pregnancy in the post-earthquake context. The conference took place at the Karibe hotel in Petionville.

To the right, you can see a couple of photos of Ms. Pierre presenting her work. 


In addition to Marie Bettie, Enstiti Travay Sosyal held a contest to send additional students to the conference. We held a contest where students were asked what they thought the top priority for research on Haiti should be. Three students won the contest, Chadson Pierre, Bernard Paul Evans, and Louiceus Ozias. They are pictured together below.

Congratulations to all four students who attended the conference. ETS is looking forward to providing more professional development and research opportunities in the future. Well done!
