The IIRF is pleased to extend the invitation to participate in a webinar organized by the Observatory of Religious Freedom in Latin America on “The Regulation of Religion in Cuba”.
Due to the influence that religious leaders exert in the community, they are perceived by the Cuban government as a competing voice of authority. In that sense, to the extent that religion or religious groups do not adhere to the postulates or interests of the communist party, they represent for the government a danger to its legitimacy, stability and perpetuation in power. Recognizing this dynamic leads to the need to emphasize how the persistence of the Cuban state in systematically repressing any sign of peaceful opposition to the official ideology has singularly exposed religious leaders.
The event will be held on Tuesday, June 14 at 04:00 pm from Cuba/Miami, 02:00 pm from Mexico and 03:00 pm from Peru.
