Chile: Protests for free education

Dozens of thousands of students and teachers in Santiago of Chile have protested to claim free education. It is significant that it is the sixth struggle since the beginning of the year.

The university students in Chile have participated in almost 100 demonstrations, since 2011, inviting Sebastian Piniera government to establish  a healthy free educational system. It seems though, that the government’s and the opposition’s perception of free education is not even close to what students and teachers need and demand.
