Cuba
Cuba implemented 244 actions, programs and projects between 2022 and 2023. Eighty-two percent (82%) of these exchanges were carried out through Bilateral SSC while 9.8% and 8.2% corresponded to Triangular Cooperation and Regional SSC initiatives, respectively. Cuba stood out for its predominantly provider role in Bilateral SSC and Triangular Cooperation while the role “Both” prevailed in Regional SSC initiatives (19 out of 20).
As provider, Cuba was able to strengthen its partners’ capacities in various sectors, especially in Health; Education; and Other services and social policies. As recipient, its cooperation was focused on the Agriculture and livestock; Health; and Strengthening institutions and public policies sectors, among others. When it played the role “Both”, it supported exchanges in Culture; Strengthening institutions and public policies; and Education.
Colombia, Mexico and Argentina were Cuba’s main partners between 2022 and 2023. Its cooperation contributed to the achievement of the 2030 Agenda, mainly to SDG 3 (Good health and well-being), SDG 4 (Quality education) and SDG 11 (Sustainable cities and communities).
