This was the first IFCO caravan in two years and is the first US delegation to arrive as Cuba opens up its borders to tourism. The delegation also brought 3 tons of medical aid from the people of the U.S. to the people of Cuba. A particular focus of this year’s caravan is to see first-hand how Cuba has managed the COVID-19 pandemic, and how that challenge has been exacerbated by the 62 year-old U.S. Government economic embargo. The Caravan delegates are meeting with Cuban health care workers and artists to learn about their lives and experiences during this challenging time and will have a special meeting with Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel.

The Caravan’s presence in Cuba is significant given the increased hostility that the Biden administration has carried out especially over the last several months. We hope you will join us so that we can change US foreign policy towards Cuba – Viva Cuba!
