AKP Phnom Penh, March 18, 2025 —

Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel participated in the inauguration of the IV edition of the International Colloquium Patria, in which some 400 national and foreign delegates from 47 countries are participating.

With the precept “We are peoples weaving networks”, the event, which takes place at the University of Havana, will discuss the use of content and digital platforms as tools for social mobilization, political participation and configuration of power.

Conferences, theoretical workshops and exhibition fairs make up the program of the event, dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the multi-state channel Telesur -founded by Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez- and the 40th anniversary of the Faculty of Communication of the University of Havana.

Sponsored by the Union of Journalists of Cuba and with the collaboration of Casa de las Americas and the Hermanos Saíz Association, the Coloquio Patria offers communicators, academics, politicians, activists and interested citizens a space to reflect on the opportunities and challenges of technopolitics.

This forum has been held since 2022, in the context of Cuban Press Day, and pays tribute to the newspaper founded by National Hero José Martí in 1892 to disseminate libertarian ideas and unite Cubans around the need for independence from the Spanish metropolis.
