ZU GAST IM GRASSI: GEOGRAPHISCHE GESELLSCHAFT - Kuba im Krisenmodus

In the organizer's words:

In his lecture, Matthias Schmidt talks about Cuba, which has been in crisis for decades, marked by natural disasters, energy shortages, the US embargo and the collapse of the Soviet Union. Despite these burdens, the country made progress in education, health and poverty reduction and became a popular tourist destination. However, the pandemic-induced slump in tourism exacerbated the economic problems and put Cuban socialism to the test once again.
