I can’t browse the web in real time, so I can’t look up or verify an official 2026 literacy-rate number for Cuba right now. I can, however, tell you exactly where to check and how to cite the official source, and I can help format the citation if you paste the number/link you find.

Authoritative sources to check (with direct pages/queries to use)
- UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) — main authoritative source for national literacy statistics
- Country page: https://uis.unesco.org/en/country/cu
- UIS data portal: search “Cuba literacy rate” on http://uis.unesco.org
- World Bank Data
- Cuba country page: https://data.worldbank.org/country/cuba
- Indicator (adult literacy rate): https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SE.ADT.LITR.ZS?locations=CU
- Cuba’s official statistics office (Oficina Nacional de Estadísticas e Información, ONEI)
- Website: https://www.onei.gob.cu/ — look for education/literacy/statistics releases or yearbooks
- UNESCO Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Report or national education ministry releases
- GEM: https://gem-report.unesco.org
- Cuba Ministry of Education (if needed): http://www.mined.gob.cu/ (or check ONEI for aggregated statistics)

Search queries you can paste into Google
- Cuba literacy rate 2026 site:uis.unesco.org
- Cuba “literacy rate” 2026 site:data.worldbank.org
- Cuba alfabetización 2026 sitio:onei.gob.cu (Spanish search can help with local releases)

Notes on what to look for
- Confirm which indicator is being reported: “adult literacy rate (ages 15+)” vs “youth literacy rate (ages 15–24)” — they’re different.
- Check the date on the data table or release: many agencies publish up through the latest completed year; a reported “2026” value might be a projection or not yet available.
- Use the agency’s published dataset or PDF release as the official source to cite.

How to cite the figure (examples)
- UNESCO Institute for Statistics (if you find it there):
UNESCO Institute for Statistics. “Literacy rate, population 15+ (%), Cuba, 2026.” UIS Data Centre. [URL]. Accessed [date].
- World Bank (if from World Bank Data):
The World Bank. “Literacy rate, adult total (% of people ages 15 and above) — Cuba (SE.ADT.LITR.ZS).” World Bank Data. [URL]. Accessed [date].
- ONEI (if from Cuba’s national office):
Oficina Nacional de Estadísticas e Información (ONEI). [Title of publication or table], [year]. [URL]. Accessed [date].

If you want, you can:
- Paste the link or the number you found and I’ll verify the wording, confirm whether it’s an estimate/projection, and produce a properly formatted citation.
- Give me permission to use a web-browsing tool (if available in your interface) — then I can fetch and quote the exact 2026 figure and source.
