A referendum was held on 25 September 2022 in Cuba to approve amendments to the Family Code of the Cuban Constitution. The revised code contains stronger rules on gender equality and modernizes protections for women, children, the elderly and people with disabilities. Moreover, legal recognition is given to same-sex marriage and adoption and altruistic surrogacy. Following the code's approval, Cuba's family policies have been described as among the most progressive in Latin America.
