The Cuban Reflection Movement (Movimiento Cubano Reflexión), based in Camajuaní, Villa Clara, is an organization that seeks alternatives for change due to the global crisis affecting Cuban society. Inspired by noble civic traditions and having as its foundation the democratization of the country, the Cuban Reflection Movement is a pro human rights and pluralist entity. Librado Linares Garcia, general secretary, heads the organization, which carries out the majority of its work in the central provinces of the country - Sancti Spiritus, Cienfuegos and Villa Clara. The Cuban Reflection Movement seeks fulfillment of its objectives through the following:

1. Permanent monitoring of the deplorable human rights situation in Cuba.
2. Humanitarian aid for political prisoners and for persecuted citizens and their families for being the primary victims of the systematic and institutionalized violation of the civil, economic and political rights of the people.
3. The study of problems affecting the Cuban nation at the political, economic and international levels.
4. The expansion and strengthening of working relationships with different organizations inside and outside the island that seek an end to the national crisis within a framework of mutual respect, tolerance and related objectives.

Compelled by the urgency of the deteriorating political, economic and social situation in the country and conscious of the indispensable necessity for change, the Cuban Reflection Movement makes a call to all the parties involved in the Cuban conflict to create a climate of political dialogue as a tool for effecting a peaceful transition to democracy and also confirms the legitimacy of civic action with the people that defies any kind of obstacle or danger while seeking to fulfill the sacred dreams of so many generations of Cubans, those dreams that Martí summarized when he said: "I want the foremost law of our Republic to be the cult for the dignity of man."
