Guatemalan indigenous woman tells a story of discrimination regarding the right to education |
In the workshop “Justiciability of the Right to Education in Central America”, Angélica Macario Quino presented proof that the State is not fulfilling its obligation.
“My personal story is a typical example of most indigenous peoples in Guatemala. My mother tongue is quiché; when I first arrived at school I had to learn Spanish, due to the lack of bilingual education. Since there were no bilingual teachers I had to repeat first grade”, recounted Angélica Macario Quino in the workshop “Justiciability of the Right to Education”, promoted by CLADE. Read up about the workshop that took place in Guatemala City 2nd - 3rd October. Click here
