From Cuba Analysis Podcasts

In this episode of Cuba Analysis Podcast, we speak to Dr Emily Morris, a development economist[...]at the University College London...

She describes the overlapping effects of the pandemic, domestic currency reform, tightening of US #sanctions...factors that have combined to produce a sustained and deep economic crisis, resulting in prolonged electricity blackouts, goods shortages and large-scale emigration. She also examines how #US sanctions weaponise international finance and trade, obliging banks to block transactions with #Cuba and ships to turn away from Cuban ports...

We get an insider’s view of collaborative projects ...from Cuban scientists turning landfill methane into energy to pioneering next-generation battery technology and developing sustainable urban transit plans.
