The pedagogues who participated in the meeting presented the affectations that it brings to arts education and the difficulties in the procurement of teaching aids for children with special educational needs.
Other affiliated to the FMC, pioneers, retirees and housewives, reported the economic and human damages, in addition to the lack of medicines because of the blockade imposed by the White House.
