Two weeks ago the student and feminist movements began occupying universities and organizing marches to protest sexism within higher education. Protests were organized after reports of sexual abuse by faculty members in Chile's Austral University and the University of Chile surfaced.
On May 16 students and feminists marched in four cities, including Santiago, Chile's capital to demand the creation of an efficient action protocol in cases of sexual abuse.
One protester said the moment is unique because it is the first time the student movement mobilizes exclusively to demand an end to sexist education.
