Mexico: Education workers to stage protest march in Mexico City on Oct. 4
Education workers plan to march from Monumento a la Revolucion to the Zocalo in Mexico City, Mexico, from 16:00 Oct. 4.
Around 3,500 members of the Union of Workers for the Autonomous University of Mexico (Sindicato de Trabajadores de la Universidad Nacional Autonoma de México, STUNAM) plan to stage a protest march in Mexico City on Oct. 4. Participants will gather at 16:00 at Monumento a la Revolucion before marching toward the Zocalo. The demonstration will demand improved salaries and a reworking of their current work contract.
Authorities will likely maintain a heightened security presence near the march route to monitor the protest. Localized transport and business disruptions are likely.
As a precaution, avoid the protest activity. Consider taking alternative routes to circumvent the vicinity of the march and any related disruptions. Allow extra time for travel in Mexico City. Adhere to all instructions issued by local officials.
