SUMMARY:Advancing Environmental Sustainability and  Historic Preservation in Cuba
DESCRIPTION:Advancing Environmental Sustainability and Historic Preservation in Cuba\nCuba-U.S. Collaboration in a New Era of Change\nMonday\, June 4\, 2018 – 1:00pm – 5:00pm \nCarnegie Endowment for International Peace – 1779 Massachusetts Ave NW\, Washington\, DC 20036 \nCuba has developed differently from any other country in the Caribbean. Many of its natural ecosystems remain remarkably healthy\, and the country’s cultural heritage remains authentic and largely intact. The efforts to normalize relations between Cuba and the United States by President Obama fueled dramatic growth in tourism and interest in investment on the island\, sparking concern that Cuba now faced the same scale of pressures that have resulted in environmental and heritage degradation throughout the Caribbean. With the advent of the Trump presidency and chilling of relations\, some of these pressures have waned\, but likely only temporarily. \nThis public event explores opportunities for small-scale\, collaborative initiatives to successfully advance environmental sustainability and historic preservation in Cuba during this period of political uncertainty. It includes the public release of a new report by Ocean Doctor and the Center for International Policy\, A Century of Unsustainable Tourism in the Caribbean: Lessons Learned and Opportunities for Cuba. \nSpeakers \nIntroductory Remarks\n\nSalih Booker\, Executive Director\, Center for International Policy\nWelcome\nHis Excellency Jose R. Cabañas Ph.D.\, Ambassador\, Embassy of the Republic of Cuba\nCuba-U.S. Collaboration in a Time of Change \n\nRobert L.

Guggenheim\, President Ocean Doctor (moderator)\nReport Release: A Century of Unsustainable Tourism in the Caribbean: Lessons Learned and Opportunities for Cuba;\nProject “Red Alerta” on the Isle of Youth\, the Potential for Small-Scale Community-Based Conservation \n\nDr. Brian M. Boom\, Vice President for Conservation Strategy\, The New York Botanical Garden\, and Chair\, NYBG Caribbean Consortium\nSustainable Travel and Cuba’s Botanical Gardens\n\nHistoric Preservation\n\nElizabeth Newhouse\, Cuba Project Director\, Center for International Policy (moderator)\nCan Havana Continue to be a Model for the Region? \n\nNorma Barbacci\, Preservation Consultants\, LLC\nOpportunities for Preservation in Old Havana and Beyond \n\nKadir Lopez Nieves\, Artist and Adolfo V.
