In July 2015, Cuba and the United States officially restored diplomatic relations, and although the economic embargo is still in place, travel restrictions have been eased. While visits for educational purposes have been allowed over the years, the recent thawing of relations has sparked renewed interest in the Caribbean island nation, which is located only 90 miles from Florida. UConn faculty have been at the forefront of this trend, and engagement with Cuba now includes collaboration and scholarship related to the island’s history, arts, literature, healthcare, politics and economic development.
