Cuban women let their hair go grey

A demographic dynamics that has among its principal profiles the progressive population aging and whose challenges point to several spheres of Cuban life which need to be dealt with based on present-day events is appearing behind the visible grey hair of many Cuban women.

To categorically affirm that “Cuban women are letting their hair go grey” is, without a doubt, an uncertain generalisation; however, the reason to say this is not sensationalist, its aim is for it to be a call to attention regarding a “phenomenon” that, though isolated, can be seen especially in the immense majority (or immense minority…?) of Havana artists, writers, journalists and cultural promoters…; beautiful women, some of them very beautiful in the recent past and still today, who are in the so-called third age.

In Cuba, a country that must put a great deal of effort in being economically viable, politically participative, socially just and ecologically sustainable, the Church must retake, in a creative and complex way, the relation between faith and politics.


Open focus on Cuban statistics

In Cuba, the National Statistical Information System (SIEN) is a legitimating mechanism of the Cuban public administration that points to the control and centralisation of information, but the technical limitations restrict and make complex its use.

The National System of Statistics and Information is the fundamental resource for the decision making of the Cuban State and government. 


Transition toward renewable energy sources is essential

An integral and coordinated focus of the sectorial policies of development with the energy ones make it possible to understand and, therefore, simplify and lower the costs of the required changes, the vice president of Cubasolar’s Public Relations, Julio Torres Martínez, affirms.

Deep, for many centuries under the ground. When some only believe it is in its death throes, there are those who have already “buried” the oil age. “It should become Ancient History, to teach the new generations the nonsenses the capitalist model of industrial development led us to, despite its material and technological achievements,” Julio Torres Martínez, vice president of Public Relations of the Cuban Society for the promotion of renewable sources and environmental respect, known as Cubasolar, said.
