The AlterPresse site is a source of information on political, economic, social, and cultural processes, and on the role-players involved in these processes: social movements, community associations, promotion and defense of human rights organisms, development organisations, research and non-formal educational institutions, universities, etc.

It also plays a role in circulating information among Haitians abroad (over 2 million citizens constituting one fourth of the total national population) and the Haitians living in their own country.

The agency is particularly interested in gender equity, female leadership, local participation, supportive economy, proper technologies, food assurance, sustainable agriculture, environmental protection, traditional medicine, children's rights, responsible paternity, and alternative and popular communication.
