The first ELAM graduation ceremony

Fidel, Chávez and other leaders and personalities from Latin America and the Caribbean preside over the first graduation ceremony of the Latin American School of Medicine (ELAM)

Speech given by Dr. Fidel Castro Ruz, President of the Republic of Cuba, at the graduation ceremony of the Schools for Art Instructors in "Ernesto Che Guevara" Square, Santa Clara, October 20, 2004

A call was put out to grassroots cadres of the YCL and the José Martí Pioneers Organization to look on the schools as the most important Pioneers’ Palaces, because they are a new kind of school. Previously, computers, VCRs, TV sets and many art workshops were to be found in the Pioneers’ Palaces and camps. Today, they are in the schools themselves.
