LEHMAN IN THE PROVINCES
FACULTY EXPLORATORY PROGRAM
JANUARY 8 - 18, 2026
PROGRAM GOAL
The award-winning Lehman in The Provinces program, established in 2016, has taken two delegations of students and faculty to Cuba to research, study, and collaborate with university partners through the island. After a pause in the program due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Lehman in The Provinces is ready to launch again with an exploration trip for faculty and staff. As a delegate of the program, you will visit Cuba, meet with Ministry and university administrators, and faculty. We’ll tour universities in various provinces, engage with community organizations, meet with artists, and visit UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Our goal is to experience Cuban culture and build foundations for future collaborations and programs.
