Through the financing of scientific research projects, the Fund of the Bank of the Republic of Haiti (BRH) for Research and Development intends to strengthen the involvement of the main actors in the various fields of study and research able to make advance reflection on the major issues concerning the economic and social development of the country, the changes linked to climate change, the digital economy and scientific progress.

The creation of the BRH Fund for Research and Development is an appeal to universities to play a more proactive role and the establishment of an integrated and inclusive development process.

During the first edition of the scientific days of the BRH Fund for Research and Development (FRD - BRH) in Port-au-Prince this week (May 25 and 26, 2023), dedicated to science, innovation and progress , researchers, whose projects are supported by the BRH fund, had the opportunity to present their discoveries or the first results of their scientific research.
