Family as well as individual behavior play an important part in the decision to have a child [in Cuba], according to research from the University of Havana’s Center for Demographic Studies (CEDEM).Sexual initiation often takes place without contraception, said CEDEM researcher, Maydee Vázquez, during a recent panel entitled Family planning and reproductive rights from the perspectives of demographics and sexuality.
