For 65 years, the Federation of Cuban Women (FMC) has been at the forefront of profound social transformations, winning rights, expanding spaces for participation, and dignifying the lives of Cuban women. Thanks to our organizational strength, Cuban women have gained a presence in all areas of society as a result of decades of struggle and dedication.
We celebrate with pride and gratitude each member who, with resistance, dedication, and dignity, has sustained the Revolution and strengthened the FMC. In the face of the blockade, the main strength has been in the unity of women: together they face it, resist it, and overcome it with creativity, intelligence, and commitment, finding alternatives, building solutions, and defending life with tenderness and firmness.
without women there is no revolution.
At every stage, the Cuban federated women have demonstrated deep loyalty to the legacy of Fidel and Vilma Espin our founder, to the FMC as their common home, and to the Socialist Revolution as the only path toward the just and equitable world we deserve. Their loyalty is not just memory: it is action, continuity, and future.
The FMC is more than an organization: it is a symbol of struggle, unity, and transformation. And each member is a protagonist of that legacy, which is renewed in every gesture of solidarity, in every victory for justice, in every step toward equality.
Thank you for resisting, for caring, for building. Thank you for never giving up.
Thank you for making these 65 years of Revolution possible, with the face of women!
