Overview
- CONADU, CONADU Histórica and FAGDUT began a nationwide 72-hour stoppage from November 12 to 14, halting classes across public universities.
- Unions demand full implementation of Law 27.795, salary restitution with reopened paritarias, restoration of FONID, and a larger 2026 budget.
- The government promulgated the law but suspended its application pending funding sources, prompting a legal challenge from the UBA and plans by unions to judicialize wage bargaining disputes.
- Operations vary by campus, with many non-teaching staff not joining, facilities remaining open in some cases, exams largely maintained at the UNC, and FAGDUT pairing a one-day full strike with two days of visibility actions.
- Leaders warn they could delay the start of the 2026 academic year if there is no movement on the law, while a separate indefinite faculty strike at Peru’s UNP has kept over 15,000 students out of classes for a week.
