Abstract

This article seeks to connect collective actions in support of education in Colombia during the last five years by expressing and showing that such actions were not isolated and disorganized but rather corresponded to other actions of greater resonance and impact in Latin America and the world at large in the struggle for rights and justice and in rejection of economic models or the corruption of leaders. It examines how social movements have reached the streets and generated projects clearly connected to their Concerns, beyond ideologies and traditional forms of organization, expressed in the from of indignation.

In this regard, based on the systematization of the OACEP’s database, which records all collective actions and manifestations registered by print media (newspapers, magazines, and blogs) teacher unions webpages and social networks, it presents the results of these mobilizations and collective actions. Finally, it draws some conclusions on the panorama of these mobilizations in relation to those of recent years.
