What is the Campaign for a Non-Sexist and Anti-discriminatory Education?
Moriana Hernndez: The Campaign encompasses the goals of networks in 15 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, working towards an education that contextualizes the different ways that people live.

This perspective needs to be integrated into the nice’ politically correct statements that are so often made, into laws, constitutions,regulations, bylaws, and above all into practice. Schools must deconstruct the ideological frameworks that perpetuate violence
