Chilean Students Take To The Streets In Protest Over The Country’s Rejected Constitution
Students gathered at a number of Santiago's metro stations on Wednesday to stage a protest against the rejection of a new constitution by voters. This new constitution would have, among other things, expanded social rights and enhanced environmental regulations. During the demonstration, students called for changes to Chile's educational system, arguing that the country's existing system is plagued by significant levels of socioeconomic inequality, technical disparities, and gender discrimination.
