A Haitian presidential decree published on 8 August 2025 named historian Gusti-Klara Gaillard Pourchet as co-chair of the Haitian side of the Franco-Haitian historians’ commission and set out its mission and operation. Haitian participation matters because the 1825 indemnity has often been narrated through French state archives and diplomatic accounts. A joint structure can widen the archive and debate, though its historical work is not equivalent to a reparations settlement.
