We served the undocumented Haitian immigrants working in the Bateyes (sugar cane fields) of Dominican Republic who are living/working in inhuman conditions, facing discrimination and violation of their basic human and civil rights due to apathetic political policies in the Dominican Republic. Through this trip, we acquired a greater understanding of the plight of the Haitians living in Dominican Republic by volunteering with different local nonprofit organizations and by hosting forums for Haitians living in Dominican Republic and Haitian-Dominicans to share their experiences.
