Unicef: students call for secondary school changes

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina, 15 September 2008 Students at the Institute Filii Dei in the Retiro neighbourhood of Buenos Aires recently welcomed a delegation of their peers participating in an international seminar on secondary education organized by UNICEF. Among the 20 adolescents who met with students at this school in one of the Argentine capitals most impoverished districts was Angeles Hernández Lavarol, who attends the Institute herself and represented the school at the three-day seminar. It was a very fruitful experience, said Angeles. The girls and boys with whom I shared the seminar had the opportunity to visit my school and exchange experiences with my classmates. And my classmates were very happy because they were given the chance to expose their reality. To read the full story, visit: http://www.unicef.org/infobycountry/argentina_45629.html
