RADIO- TV MARTI/BROADCASTING BOARD OF GOVERNORS
In September 2016, Miami hosted the first ever Cuba Internet Freedom Conference (CIF); the second event took place in November 2017. This conferences not only focused on improving digital rights and uncensored internet access for Cuba, but the topic of access to the media in Venezuela was also addressed during the 2017 event. Interlangue provided simultaneous Spanish<> English interpreting services during both conferences. The events were organized by the Office of Cuba Broadcasting (OCB) and were broadcasted to the island of Cuba, which has “one of the lowest internet penetration rates in the world. Recently, the United Nations declared Internet access as a basic human right, and Cuba opposed the move”
The OCB, part of the networks of the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG), has its headquarters in Miami, FL and oversees Radio and Television Marti, both of which provide the people of Cuba with programs through satellite television, AM radio and other means to bring objective information to all Cubans. The BBG is an “independent federal agency supervising all U.S. government-supported, civilian international media. Its mission is to inform, engage and connect people around the world in support of freedom and democracy. The BBG programming has an audience of 278 million in more than 100 countries and in 61 languages”
