Cuba: Environmental Challenges, Policies, and Progress
24 Oct 2022, 18:00 – 19:30
Many of Cuba’s challenges from climate change, pollution and resource depletion are shared with Caribbean neighbours, but its conditions and policy frameworks for tackling them are quite different. Based on her research, Dr Morris will discuss the assessment of Cuba’s on record environmental protection.
