📷 LANZAMIENTO DE CAMPAÑA: DESPIDOS INJUSTIFICADOS EN SECIHTI

Más de 40 Investigadoras e #Investigadores por #México han sido despedidos injustificadamente de la #SECIHTI.

Con esta campaña, evidenciamos acoso, discriminación y uso indebido de los procedimientos administrativos.

"Hay una tensión muy fuerte entre lo que se dice como proyecto de nación y como proyecto científico, y lo que es la realidad de cómo viven las personas que están haciendo esa investigación."

El Salvador tiene muchas maneras, demasiadas, de romperte el corazón.

Un agradecimiento póstumo al Padre Tojeira, por su incansable lucha a favor de los derechos humanos y la justicia social en #ElSalvador.

A reminder that street #gangs are not organized #crime, and that organized criminal groups are not terrorist organizations.

How we view and understand these different groups has implications for how we tackle them.

And no, we cannot bomb our way out of crime.

Civic education is key to halting #authoritarianism. #Bukele understands this and has appointed a military officer as education minister.

Bukele has liquidated checks and balances in #ElSalvador, spreads disinformation, and uses the state of emergency and the military to stifle dissent.

Desde que inició el programa Cátedras #Conahcyt, hoy #Investigadores por #México de la #Secihti, ha habido una inconsistencia entre la prima de antigüedad fija que se está pagando (2%) y la prima acumulable que establecen las prestaciones aprobadas por la SHCP.

Breaking News: President Trump has secretly signed a directive to the Pentagon to begin using military force against certain Latin American drug cartels. It authorizes the use of the armed forces to carry out what in the past was considered a law enforcement responsibility.

Sobre la violencia a la que, tarde o temprano, el autoritarismo y la falta de paz llevan:

"No hay alegatos ni juicio, no hay pruebas ni búsqueda, no hay sospechosos, no hay pistas, no hay esfuerzo, no hay interés, faltan certezas, no hay escándalo ni marchas ni protestas."

Carlos Dada reflexiona sobre el fracaso de la paz en 🇸🇻. Cita a Castellanos Moya: "Ni siquiera 11 años de guerra civil sirvieron para cambiar algo, 11 años de matanza y quedaron los mismos ricos, los mismos políticos, el mismo pueblo jodido y la misma imbecilidad permeando el ambiente."

El Salvador's Legislative Assembly has passed constitutional changes that allow #ElSalvador's president to reelect himself indefinitely. These are dire news for democracy & human rights. Resistance against #Bukele's authoritarianism needs to be stepped up. www.laprensagrafica.com/elsalvador/A...
Asamblea Legislativa habilita reelección presidencial indefinida - La Prensa Gráfica
Mediante un proceso abreviado, la Asamblea Legislativa reformó cuatro artículos de la Constitución referentes a la reelección, la duración del periodo presidencial y la segunda vuelta.

NEW: On March 15, President Donald Trump’s administration sent more than 230 Venezuelan immigrants to a maximum-security prison in El Salvador.

Last week, the men were released as suddenly as they’d been taken away.

These are their stories.

In his first presidential campaign, Donald #Trump called for the construction of a physical border wall. But how did the idea of a virtual US-Mexico #border emerge?
