Description
Dr. Domínguez López’s presentation will address how Cuba - a country often accused of
being frozen in time - has actually embraced innovation at home, particularly since the end of the
Cold War. Whether developing sustainable agriculture, funding biomedical breakthroughs,
embracing tourism, strengthening medical care in developing countries, or maintaining its social
safety net despite numerous economic challenges, Cuba has continued to pursue an independent course in revolutionary ways.
