Klappentext

This book examines the unique case of Cuban cooperation with countries in the Pacific Island region particularly as it relates to the challenge of combatting substance abuse.
Cuba has played a critical role in bolstering the healthcare capacities of the Pacific region through the training of Pacific Island medical students, placing Cuban medical teams throughout the region, and engaging in a range of new cooperative projects following the pandemic. The work examines the embrace of Cuba in the Pacific region and the use of the Cuban government's essential development model thorough three case studies of Fiji, Solomon Islands, and Tonga.
