Overview
- CTERA and the Buenos Aires provincial union front confirmed the 24-hour action for October 14, with widespread class suspensions in public schools and uneven participation in private institutions.
- The main mobilization is set for 10 a.m. outside the National Congress in Buenos Aires, with concurrent protests, open classes, and caravans in provincial capitals.
- Unions’ demands include reinstating the FONID, reconvening the Paritaria Nacional Docente, passing a new education financing law, boosting budgets and infrastructure funds, and protecting salaries and pensions.
- Santa Fe and the City of Buenos Aires announced schools will remain open locally and said teachers who strike will face pay deductions or other sanctions.
- University participation is partial through Conadu Histórica affiliates, and organizers link the protest to reduced national transfers and the 2026 budget plan that unions say weakens education funding.
