The UNESCO Transcultura programme has created a Caribbean Cultural Training Hub to strengthen the capacities of young culture professionals from the region. A total of 132 students, from 17 Caribbean countries, will participate in 11 two-week courses in subjects related to design, music, restoration trades and crafts, thanks to scholarships provided by the programme. The courses will take place between October and November 2023 and will be delivered, in Spanish and English, by 4 Cuban institutions: the Higher Institute of Design, the University of the Arts, the Workshop School of Havana ‘Gaspar Melchor de Jovellanos’ and the Cuban Fund of Cultural Assets.
Cultural courses began in Havana to train more than 100 young people from the Caribbean sponsored by UNESCO-EU scholarships
