A delegation of teachers from the Chicago Teachers Union traveled to Oaxaca, Mexico, to be part of the Trinational Conference on Defending Public Education. The Trinational Conference highlights issues facing teachers' unions in the United States, Mexico, and Canada. A significant pre-event included visiting preschools, elementary schools, and high schools,  where teachers observed how students helped co-create the curriculum in their schools. Participants engaged in community building, teacher autonomy, indigenous rights privatization during the conference, and much more.
One CTU teacher member, Elise Knaub, said of the trip,”It was striking to see similarities between the three countries in our fight to defend public education. Coming back, I realize here in Chicago, we need to roll up our sleeves and get to work.
