Santa Fe Education Law

The Education Law of Santa Fe was a broad, diverse process that began in 2017 with the purpose of collectively building the Education Law of the province of Santa Fe, through the implementation of different participatory mechanisms. This process involved the educational guilds, teachers, universities, educational establishments of all levels and modalities, instances of dialogue with mayors and communal presidents, and the social economic council where more than 40 institutions participate. The sectors that were part of this process come together in different regional forums and meetings: forum with representatives of indigenous peoples, forum with representatives of cooperatives and rurality, forum with representatives of institutions of the LGTBI collective, meeting with organizations for the inclusion of students with disabilities, meeting with student centers, and meeting with Malvinas ex-combatants. These instances ended with the drafting of a bill that was presented in 2018 and its approval is pending by the legislature in order to become a provincial law.

Decisiveness: does the innovation takes binding, non-binding or no decision at all?
