60 Mayors of different cities of Haiti will arrive in Miami on May 4, 2005.
Once again, this historical event is the result of a special invitation by
Mayor Otis Wallace of the City of Florida City. During their visit, they
will participate in the One people, One community week of activities at
Miami Dade College Homestead Campus, where they will receive training in
different subjects such as Fiscal Management, Municipality Administration,
Ethics, Community Relations and Building Partnerships, Environment, Tourism,
Management and Operational Requirements of providing social services to the
community, and International Non-profit Relationships.

In addition, the Mayors will visit Local Police Departments, Fire
Departments, Solid Waste Plants, Local and Miami-Dade Commission Chambers,
and Chamber of Commerce offices. This visit will also be geared towards
opening opportunities in sister cities, experiencing the role of municipal
and county government, as well as the private sector through structured
tours and learning opportunities.  This mentoring opportunity will give the
visiting Mayors a chance to learn valuable information that will assist them
as they redevelop the beautiful nation of Haiti.
