The 38th edition of the Southern Cross Brigade will kick off on 29 December 2022. The Southern Cross Brigade offers Australian and New Zealand friends of Cuba the opportunity to learn more about the island nation's unique, yet often misunderstood, political history and to participate in Cuba’s rich cultural heritage. As Cuba, Australia and New Zealand reopen, there is no better time to join the brigade and to find out what life is like in socialist Cuba!
Highlights of this year's program: a multi-day stay in the Korimakao youth art commune, exchange with Villa Clara LGBTIQ social projects and the Federation of Cuban Women, attendance at the National Ballet, visits to the Fidel Castro Centre and Che Guevara Mausoleum, visits to local environmental conservation projects and cooperatives, and discussion with healthcare workers involved in Cuba's COVID-19 response (including the production and distribution of Cuba's homegrown vaccines)!
