A Note from Cuba

My participation in Pensacola as part of an International Visitor Program Leadership was a unique opportunity to learn, at various levels, the possibilities of the interactions between economic activities such as tourism, with strategies for environmental protection or mitigation.

Knowing firsthand the hard work you do in Pensacola from government agencies and NGOs, to little private businesses, served as inspiration for the search for solutions to the great challenge of sustainable development.

I wish you the best results at this meeting, with the hope that it will serve to continue promoting this type of inclusive programs.
