Colombian Workers Demand Constitutional Court Action on Pension Reform with Protests

Workers in Colombia, led by the Federación Colombiana de Trabajadores de la Educación, are demanding the Constitutional Court of Colombia to validate a controversial pension reform amidst ongoing protests.

• The Federación Colombiana de Trabajadores de la Educación and the Central Union of Workers organized protests in Bogotá to advocate for the approval of a pension reform by the Constitutional Court of Colombia.
• Protesters argue that the pension reform, supported by the Government of Colombia, was improperly processed, claiming it contains significant procedural flaws that need judicial review.
• These demonstrations reflect broader labor unrest in Colombia, as trade unions like the Workers United Center of Chile express solidarity with Colombian workers in their fight for fair pension rights.
