Twenty years across four countries, converging into one mission.
Louinel Jean, MEd — Caribbean Constructivist, Minister/Diplomat, and founder of HIES — has spent more than two decades working at the intersection of language, education, and humanitarian development — across Haiti, Jamaica, France, and the United States. His path began in practical theology and global missions, the root beneath every classroom, every translation, and every community he has served since.
He has served as Vice President of the Norigene Foundation and Regional Director of Rain Catchers Global, leading post-earthquake recovery programs across solar energy, agriculture, and water filtration in underserved Haitian communities. He has taught at the Jamaican Ministry of Education, the HEART/NSTA Trust Community College, and the Alliance Française under the French Embassy in Kingston — and he is a contract linguist and Haitian Creole standard setter for the U.S. Department of Defense, a rare credential held by a small number of vetted professionals.
Across every role, Louinel is a constructivist — and a certified educator in three nations: Haiti, Jamaica, and the United States.
HIES is that conviction, built into an institution. If your own path has carried you through a classroom, a congregation, a clinic, or a workshop — there is very likely a place for you in this work.
