Join STFM in Cuba

Are you interested in learning how Cuba's national health system has focused on prevention and community engagement? Are you familiar with Cuba's medical school for non-Cubans (ELAM), where American medical students plan primary care careers in under-resourced and minority communities in the United States?

Travel with STFM-MEDICC and gain an understanding of how this small, resource-poor country achieves outcomes comparable, and in some cases superior, to those of the United States at a fraction of the cost.
