Argentina: Social activists plan protest in Buenos Aires Aug. 23

Event

Social activists associated with the National Tenant Movement (El Movimiento Inquilino Nacional) have planned a protest outside the National Congress in central Buenos Aires from 17:00 Aug. 23 to press for greater legislative protection for renters. The amount of participants the event may draw remains unclear.

Further marches and gatherings are possible in central Buenos Aires, particularly near government buildings and plazas. Heightened security is likely near demonstrations, as are localized transport and business disruptions.

Advice

Exercise caution near demonstrations. Heed the directives of authorities. Plan for localized transport and business disruptions.
