International World Solidarity Conference

International World Solidarity Conference - Havana, November 10-13, 2000

This conference will be the largest world solidarity conference ever to take place and will involve delegations from many nations, a sort of people's united nations meeting. A people's "state of the world" conference. It will be awesome. Every Cuba solidarity organization will be sending a delegation, worldwide.

In the US, many organizations will be organizing delegations to participate in this historic event. We anticipate a US delegation of over 1,000 people. In the last world encounter, South Africa alone sent over 500 people! Since the 31 other nations with which Cuba has normalized sister city projects will send delegations to this conference, we hope to be able to have, after the world conference, another brief conference and encounter with all the countries that have sister city relationships with Cuba. From that, we would like to see develop an "International-Cuba Sister Cities" organization to help all of us expand our work. There will be thousands upon thousands of people participating in this encounter -- and we will play a very minor role, but it is the one opportunity when each country will be represented and so a "world meeting of sister nations with Cuba" would be possible to arrange.

Please address any questions to USCSCA@AOL.COM
