Canada: Quebecois teachers want to give each student equal chances opportunity (21 March 2016)

The Rendez-vous CSQ de l’éducation 2016 represented a crucial occasion for Quebec’s teacher unionists to debate and share experiences on one of the most important challenges in education, i.e. equal opportunities for all.

This significant conference on Education hosted by the Education International’s affiliate, the Centrale des syndicats du Québec, with the theme ‘Everyone deserves an equal chance to write his futur’, was held from 15-16 March in Montreal, Canada.

Conferences, workshops and conversations were organised on the utmost importance of education to help reduce social inequalities and how schools can bridge the gap and bring about social justice.

You will find the video of the conference’s opening, featuring Anthony Harmon, United Federation of Teachers/USA, and Nico Hirtt, founding member of the Appel pour une école démocratique (Appeal for a democratic school) here
