Las Tunas, Cuba.- At the Pepito Tey Campus of the University of Las Tunas, three workshops were dedicated to discussing the anti-imperialist and solidarity legacy that is a paradigm for the new generations, and the Latin American student movement and its struggles for inclusive education, as well as the bonds of solidarity in the region.

The president of the organization at the University of Medical Sciences, Daimarelis Flores, highlighted the value of this meeting, also dedicated to the 57th anniversary of the Continental Latin American and Caribbean Student Organization (OCLAE), the highest representation of students in this region and a unique platform to articulate their struggles.

Other activities for Fidel's birthday include the exchange with the beneficiaries of the Buena Vista Grandparents' House, the cleaning of La Herradura beach, and the ascent to Cerro de Caisimú, as well as the Pioneer Festival "Cuba, My Country.

The tributes will multiply in different ways throughout the provincial geography.
