Abel Hernández Eskenazi

I am an active member of the Jewish community since I was a child. I am part of several of the community projects such as the Albert Einstein Sunday School, the youth organization, and religious services. I have a degree in Telecommunications and Electronics Engineering and I am an enthusiastic student of Jewish history in Cuba also.  I am part of the development of the app "Jews in Cuban History" about the impact of the Jewish minority in the different Cuban historical periods. I am proud to offer tour guide services focused on showcasing Havana's rich Jewish heritage and current affairs from the perspective of the members of this community themselves.
