Education, health, agriculture, reconstruction: the commitment of a family-run association in the Central Plateau, alongside Partners In Health.
Discover our story Our workZanmi Lasanté – PARIS (ZLP), a registered non-profit association (French law of 1901), was created in 1993 at the initiative of Doctor Paul FARMER (1959–2022), founder of Partners In Health. An anthropologist, physician and Professor of Public Health at Harvard, he was an internationally recognised figure in the fight for the health of the most deprived populations.
SUPPORTING HEALTH: Health, Education, Training, Food and Development are inseparable and, since 2001, have been our chosen fields of action. We work alongside PIH in a few villages on the shores of Lake Péligre in central Haiti.

75 homes rebuilt after 2010; community centres at Palmary and Kay Zanmi underway.
Ongoing support to three Central Plateau schools (La Pléiade, La Main Divine, La Nouvelle Orientation): 2,400 pupils from kindergarten to the baccalaureate.
Scholarships for students at UDERS in Hinche, teacher training and the development of local skills.
Solar-powered computer rooms and support for local start-ups (drinking water, tree nurseries) to create lasting jobs.
