  • In the fight for gender equality and against the impoverishment of a large part of the population, the Steilas union has launched a teaching unit to work with realistic and fair alternatives in the classrooms: “Let’s build an eco-feminist school.” He proposes exercises and materials for students from Early Childhood Education to Baccalaureate.
