“Even though, La COALICIÓN FEMINISTA CUBANA is quite young, as well as having had to face the enormous havoc that the pandemic has caused around the world and to women, we would like to highlight the struggles, and achievements that La COALICIÖN FEMINISTA CUBANA has had. We can say that we have been able to bring together a considerable group of women from all over the island; women of different generations, sexual orientations, gender identities, political positions, races, organizational realities and identities, women who are willing to become and live as “proudly transgressive” women. But our biggest success this year, the year of our creation, is our effective work in Advocacy and in giving voice to Rural Women. This is why our work to raise awareness and prevent violence against women has given rise to the creation of strategic alliances with feminist organizations and projects in different regions of the island.”
