Rooted in the idea that healthcare is a human right, Cuba’s medical education system seeks to train doctors who are both scientifically skilled and socially committed. Many ELAM students do not wait until graduation to put those values into practice. In this video, we hear from two doctors from the United States who studied at ELAM and last year led a brigade of mostly African medical students to Guinea-Bissau to provide health education and medical consultations. Their journey offers a glimpse into ELAM’s broader mission: preparing healthcare professionals to serve communities often left behind and to see medicine as a tool for social justice.
