WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID ABOUT CUBA TIES
“The event was very productive in providing firsthand insight about educational initiatives in Cuba as well as the interest of US institutions. It was quite interesting to hear about collaborations Cuban institutions have had with Argentina, Ecuadorian and European Institutions. The event served as an excellent opportunity to become familiar with Cuban institutions for those interested in establishing collaboration as diplomatic ties between the US and Cuba may allow for the re-establishment of education related collaboration.”
