Delegates will experience the revolutionary spirit of the Cuban people in creating their own futures. This people-to-people delegation will meet with women-led cooperatives and collectives that organize projects to strengthen and sustain their communities. Learn directly from the Cuban model of collective well-being, cooperative practices, and shared opportunities in the midst of the ongoing U.S. Blockade against the Cubans.
In partnership with Martin Luther King Jr. Center, we will visit with doctors, musicians, artists' collectives, urban agriculture projects, museums, and historical sites, provides an on-the-ground immersion into Cuban life and culture. This delegation is open to all applicants, and will speak to many different interests!
