CTERA Confirms Oct. 8 Protests and Oct. 14 National Teachers' Strike as Córdoba and Santa Fe Unions Join

Class suspensions in Córdoba plus attendance-bonus penalties in Santa Fe signal the stakes.

Overview

  • UEPC confirmed it will adhere to the Oct. 14 national strike, meaning no classes across most of Córdoba where the union represents the majority of teachers.
  • Amsafé will join both the Oct. 8 day of action and the Oct. 14 stoppage, with a planned mobilization in Buenos Aires on the day of the strike.
  • Santa Fe authorities will withhold the Perfect Attendance bonus from teachers who strike on Oct. 14, a payment that can reach tens of thousands of pesos.
  • CTERA’s campaign pairs Oct. 8 visibility actions such as educational tents, public classes, open-air radio and caravans with a nationwide walkout six days later.
  • The unions’ demands center on a new education financing law, reopening national bargaining, restitution of the FONID incentive, larger budgets and salary recovery.
