Havana City Historian Eusebio Leal elected a member of AAA&S in US

Havana City Historian Eusebio Leal, one of Cuba’s most recognized intellectuals, is now a member of the important American Academy of Arts and Sciences (AAA&S).

Cuba’s Ambassador to the United States, Jose Ramon Cabañas, attended on Leal’s behalf on Saturday the initiation ceremony held by the Academy based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in which Leal became an International Honorary Member.

It was revealed last April that the Cuban intellectual was a member of the list of 42 International Honorary Members from 23 countries chosen by the institution this year to highlight their outstanding achievements ‘in the academic world, arts, business, the government and public affairs.’

AAA&S, which concludes this Sunday a weekend dedicated to incorporating new members, is identified as an honorary society and an independent research center that brings together leaders from all disciplines, professions and perspectives to address significant challenges.
