CHILE: Uncertainty In The Education Sector

The Liceo Bicentenario Carmela Carvajal de Prat remains unrepaired and abandoned in Osorno, Chile, on May 7, 2026. Students have been relocated to various locations to continue their studies due to ongoing delays in building repairs. Concerns about education are increasing as the administration of Jose Antonio Kast proposes significant budget cuts. Programs potentially affected include the Public Education Support Fund, the School Meal Program, and the PACE system for access to higher education. (Photo by Fernando Lavoz/NurPhoto)
