La Internacional de la Educación lamenta el fallecimiento de Taty Almeida, activista histórica e incansable luchadora por la memoria, la justicia, la democracia y la educación pública. Expresamos nuestro sentido pésame a sus familiares y seres queridos.

"Sin duda, Tati es una de las personas que más admiro, porque vivió su vida en una coherencia total con los valores que defendía. Guardo innumerables recuerdos de nuestras conversaciones, de escuchar sus historias y de sentirme profundamente privilegiado que mi camino me permitiera sentarme a sus pies y aprender de una de las mayores activistas por la democracia que ha conocido este mundo.

Fue una compañera y aliada de docentes, estudiantes y activistas en todo el mundo. La vamos a extrañar inmensamente y de todo corazón, pero seguiremos luchando cada día para honrar su legado y hacerla sentir orgullosa al llevar su bandera y seguir sus pasos."

Secretario General, Internacional de la Educación.

We are in Nuuk to stand in solidarity with Greenland’s teachers as they defend their identity rooted in language, culture, and community.

They are not alone.

🎉 64 years of union strength. 64 years of defending teachers and public education.

As the یەكێتی مامۆستایانی كوردستان - Kurdistan Teachers Union marks its anniversary, educators are not just celebrating a history of struggle — they are raising their voices for the future.

Across the region, through seminars and meetings, union members have called for:

✅ An end to delayed salaries.
✅ Full funding for education, for schools and universities.
✅ Stronger public education.
✅ Respect for retired teachers and their pensions.
✅ Protection of teachers’ dignity.
✅ A stable academic calendar free from disruption.

They are sending a clear message: schools must be free from political interference. Because when teachers are respected, supported, and empowered, education systems — and societies — grow stronger.

Education International commends the Kurdistan Teachers’ Union and all educators fighting for justice, dignity, and quality public education for all.
