Ce qui fonctionne — Cuba

The evidence shows Cuba has undertaken significant legal and social reforms: Cuba's 2022 Family Code passed a national referendum with 66.85% support (on 74% turnout), legalising same-sex marriage, banning discrimination based on sex and gender identity, and raising the minimum marriage age to 18 for both sexes. Cuba's nationwide digital-literacy network has trained 4.55+ million people across 600+ free computer centres since 1987, though internet access remains state-controlled and expensive. Cuba's reforestation programme raised forest cover from 14% in 1959 to 31.2% by 2020, though planting capacity has declined sharply since 2020, with hectares planted falling by roughly 35% by 2024. The evidence on family-law implementation and digital access notes persistent gaps between formal rights and lived reality, and reforestation data derives from unverified government reporting with significant uncertainties in mortality rates.
