Tourism Minister of the Year – Stephanie Villedrouin, Haiti
When Caribbean Journal first launched in 2011, it had been just a year since the earthquake and tragedy dominated the headlines about Haiti. Fast forward to 2014, and, for a change, people are talking about a different kind of Haiti — the one that’s a travel destination. That’s to the credit of the dynamic Villedrouin, who’s helped steer the course of Haiti’s bold bid to return to its place as a sought-after Caribbean destination.
