Lesson Learned

I learned that Cuba has a population ratio from male to female of 0.97 to 1. The highest concentration of adults under 75 years old is in 54- 55-year-old age groups, while the lowest concentration is in the 74-73-year-old age groups. Cuba’s official and most widely spoken language is Spanish. Specifically, a Caribbean dialect known as Cuban Spanish. English is taught in schools and used in tourism, but not common in daily life. Cuba has restricted and expensive internet access, but a strong culture of innovation, sharing, and offline networks. Despite these barriers, Cubans have built a vibrant tech culture through creativity and community solutions. The digital divide in Cuba is shaped by a mix of economic limits, government control, and uneven access to technology, creating a clear gap between those who can connect to the digital world and those who cannot. Internet access is still expensive compared to the average Cuban salary, and home Wi-Fi remains rare, which forces many people to rely on public hotspots or shared connections.
