Cuba offers significant numbers of international scholarships, particularly in medicine, through its Latin American School of Medicine (ELAM). ELAM accepts students from over 30 countries, particularly low-income students from the US, Latin America, and Africa, and trains them as doctors free of charge. The Rigoberta Menchú Tum Scholarship for Indigenous Medicine supports indigenous health promoters from Latin America and the Caribbean. Cuba's medical diplomacy programme has trained tens of thousands of international doctors.
