- Strengthen solidarity links with Sister Trade Unions and CTC, Cuban Trades Union Congress, in Havana and the provincial capital of Pinar del Río, and provide a series of related professional visits to workplaces, institutions and neighbourhoods to gain a valuable and unique insight into the continuing achievements of the Cuban Revolution and present day Cuban society
- Examine the challenges facing the revolutionary island as well as the problems caused by the on going illegal US trade blockade of Cuba.
