Sustainable Development in Cuba
Trip Dates: December 8-16, 2012
Price: $2195
Explore the real Cuba! For years, Cuba has fascinated us. Just 90 miles away from the United States but culturally isolated for years. Join Social Impact Adventures as we experience first-hand Cuba’s rich history, current struggles, and what this island nation will look like tomorrow.
This is a licensed People to People trip. The US has just opened up Cuba to U.S. citizens only if they are a part of an organized educational group that wants to engage in meaningful interaction with the people of Cuba.
Meet in Miami on Saturday night, December 8 for orientation before an early charter flight to Havana on the morning of December 9. During our 7 days and 7 nights in Cuba, we will be in and around Havana for four days and spend about 3 days outside of the city visiting smaller communities and rural areas. Activities will include the following:
- Learn about Cuban history and culture, the Cuban economy and US-Cuban relations through presentations and discussions;
- Meet with local organizations engaged in sustainable development;
- Visit an organic farm, free-enterprise small businesses and an agricultural cooperative;
- Explore key cultural and historical sites; and
- Enjoy Cuban music, culture and food.
