Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>The Coordinadora Nacional de Trabajadores de la Educación has developed a strategic plan with three approaches: one political, on legal, and one pedagogical. We Mexican teachers are raising questions about education in our country so that we can build bridges of communication and struggle that might connect us with colleagues in other countries. Our fundamental objective is to defend free public education. The Coordinadora Nacional de Trabajadores de la Educación confirms its promise to participate in the debate and to create viable, relevant proposals in order to achieve social justice in our country.</p> </abstract>
