Garry Conille (French pronunciation: [ɡaʁi kɔnij]; born 26 February 1966) is a Haitian academic, development worker, politician, and author.
[2] On 28 May 2024, Haiti's transition council tapped Conille to return to the role as the Caribbean nation works to restore stability and take back control from violent gangs.
He is married to Betty Rousseau, the step daughter of Marc Bazin, a former prime minister of Haiti and has twin girls, Soraya and Gaelle.
Between the years 2000 to 2002, he created and hosted, on Radio Vision 2000, the first national interactive program focused on issues related to reproductive and sexual health.
[4][5] From January to December 2006, he worked as technical advisor for the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) project, under the supervision of Jeffrey Sachs, then-Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General.
In January 2007, Conille returned to UNFPA as Chief Technical Advisor for Africa, following which he acted as coordinator for the Global Program to Enhance Reproductive Health Commodity Security.
[19] He had clashed with ministers and Martelly over several issues,[19] the most recent being a parliamentary investigation into whether senior government officials held dual nationality, a violation of the Constitution of Haiti.
[23] Shortly afterwards, Conille was hospitalized on 8 June for undisclosed reasons, with sources from within the government stating to media that his condition was caused by an asthma attack.
[28] Conille's government appointed Rameau Normil, the former acting director-general of the Haitian National Police who served under former president Jovenel Moïse for 15 months before his dismissal, back to his post in order to handle the worsening security situation, replacing Frantz Elbé on 21 June.
[34] Following the massacre carried out in October 2024 by a gang in Pont-Sondé, Conille travelled to the United Arab Emirates and Kenya in order to seek security assistance.
[35] On 10 November 2024, the transitional council published an executive order in Le Moniteur replacing Conille with businessman and former political candidate Alix Didier Fils-Aimé.
