Description

The Center for Democracy in the Americas (CDA) has published the results of our two-year study on gender equality in Cuba. In it, we write about Cuba's gender equality achievements that have captured global attention, serious short-comings that hold Cuban women back and the prospects for gender equality as Cuba seeks to reverse its economic crisis. CDA was able to tell this story with the aid of scholars in Cuba and the U.S., and after a comprehensive review of international academic research and studies on the comparative economic, social and political standing of women in Cuba and women globally.
