The project, experts said, will allow Cuban universities to access 11,000 scientific electronic magazines as of October.

The agreement will contribute to improving research and information exchange between the two countries, since it will make it easier for Cubans to have access to updated scientific literature.

The bilateral cooperation program, which began six years ago, is expanding to new spheres for the benefit of Cuba's scientific community.

The project focuses on each country's priorities, including agricultural development, new information and communication technologies, pharmaceutical production, environment and consolidation of distance education.
