He worked on strategies and techniques to find solutions to environmental issues that affect the quality of life for Haitian citizens.
As a volunteer, he co-founded the Canadian Association for the Promotion of African Heritage (ACPHA) and, with the support of UNESCO, he achieved the Coalition of Canadian Artists (a first in Canada) that now associates with the International Coalition of Artists to promote the educational resources produced by the UNESCO for the teaching of the General History of Africa and that of its diaspora, particularly that of Haiti and the Black Antilles. The Association works with international partners to improve the living conditions of Afro-descendants in its intervention areas. After carrying out a humanitarian mission in East Africa for an education project, he supported the initiatives of a local partner in the South of Haiti to rebuild and equip a school destroyed by Hurricane Matthew.
