Argentina: Rally and march to take place in central Buenos Aires June 29

Event

Activists plan to hold a rally and march in downtown Buenos Aires on June 29 to demand governments implement effective solutions to help the homeless. The action will mark the end of the Third Latin American and Caribbean Meeting on Persons Living on the Streets. Participants will gather at Plaza de Mayo starting at 17:00 before marching to the National Congress, where several events will take place starting at 19:00. The demonstration will probably draw a large number of participants and prompt transport disruptions along the march route. Heightened security near government buildings is also likely.

Advice

Avoid all protests as a precaution. Allow additional time to reach destinations in downtown Buenos Aires through the evening of June 29.
