Who is John McAuliff ?

Mr. John McAuliff is the founder and director of the Fund for Reconciliation and Development. 

He is committed to contribute to the full normalization of US relations with Cuba as he did with Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. 

John has visited Cuba sixty-two times since 1971, all but the first visit from 1997.   His program focuses are expanding travel as well as educational and cultural exchange.  He collaborated with the Canadian-Greek Cuba Cruise and partners with Opera de la Calle and the magazine Temas. 

A special interest is the role of Irish and Irish Americans in Cuban history and the Celtic links between the traditional music of Ireland and Cubans who immigrated from Asturia and Galicia.
