Overview
- The stoppage forms part of a coordinated, rotating plan led by CONADU and CONADU Histórica, with local associations at UNR, UNLP and UNJu confirming participation.
- At the National University of Rosario, 2,064 COAD members voted, with 87.1% backing the 48-hour strike and 95.6% supporting coordination of a federal university march.
- Faculty demand reopened collective bargaining, salary recomposition and inflation-indexed funding for universities, science and technology.
- Unions reject the national government’s unilateral 7.5% pay increase scheduled for September to November, calling it insufficient after steep losses in purchasing power.
- The Senate-approved University Financing Law passed 58–10 with three abstentions, providing inflation-linked updates and retroactive recomposition, and unions plan further strikes on Sept. 1–2 alongside preparations for a September federal mobilization.
