NICARAGUA WEBINARS presents “The Evolution of Education in Nicaragua”
The International Coalition to Stop Genocide in Palestine (ICSGP) commends Nicaragua: The ICSGP commends Nicaragua for being the first nation to take formal steps to intervene on behalf of the South African ICJ case; and furthermore, for taking the bold step of putting countries that are complicit under the Genocide Convention on notice that they will be subject to legal action if they fail to desist. The ICSGP also urges social movements to continue to use the tactics of Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions by pressuring governments and corporations that are sending money and/or weapons to Israel to immediately cease those genocidal activities.
Upcoming Webinar Sunday, February 25, 3pm ET: “The Evolution of Education in Nicaragua” Spanish & English Interpretation provided. Speakers: Juan Salvador Mendez, member of the Directors’ Council of the Ministry of Education; Maria Esmeralda Aguilar Gutiérrez, Deputy Director for Vocational Training, National Technological Institute (INATEC); (Invited) Member of the National Council of Universities (CNJ).
