Cuba Elects Delegates to the 18th World Festival of Youth and Students
The election of Cuban delegates to the Eighteenth World Festival of Youth and Students (WFYS) that will take place in Quito, Ecuador from December 7 to 13, starts today.
The first Cuban direct delegate to the Eighteenth World Festival of Youth and Students that will take place in Quito, Ecuador from December 7 to 13, will be elected on July 24 in the Special Area of Development in Mariel, Artemisa province.
This election is a tribute to those young people that on the same date; but in 1953, left Artemisa province to attack the Moncada and Carlos Manuel de Cespedes barracks.
In the same way, 30 groups of students and young people throughout Cuba will have the opportunity until September 25, to choose a direct delegate to the WFYS, to form the Cuban delegation to Ecuador.
The mass process to choose the 200 members who will raise the flags of anti-imperialist unity between people will take into account the outstanding participation of the youth.
A large number of initiatives are being planned in each municipality and province of Cuba as part of the Festival’s preparation. These initiatives generate a strong political movement that involves the commitment and participation of the new generation in specific tasks.
During the months of October and November, provincial festivals will be carried out in which the youth will bring up the topics they would like to see treated in this world meeting.
The Festival, which will pay tribute to Bolivarian leader Hugo Chávez, Ecuadorian National Hero, Eloy Alfaro, and Kwame Nkrumah, from Ghana and one of the leaders of African independence, has the following motto: Youth united against imperialism, for a world of peace, solidarity and social transformations.
