This delegation will focus on how Cuba engages its citizens into civic participation. Cubans are very active in local community activities as well as national level organizations. If you are an organizer that works to get people involved in your group or issue, then travel with us to Cuba to learn how Cuban citizens are engaged in forming community and social organizations to better their society.

Participants in this delegation will:

• Learn about women’s groups, faith communities, agricultural cooperatives, youth organizations, political participation, community health care, and labor unions in Cuba.
• Research Cuban national priorities, such as universal education.
• Investigate the effects of US policies on the Cuban social service system
• Collaborate with organizers and social service providers in rural and urban areas of Cuba.
