La Universidad de Buenos Aires organizó una jornada de clases abiertas este martes en distintas facultades para destacar la importancia de la Ley de Financiamiento Universitario.

La iniciativa buscó visibilizar las tensiones existentes con el gobierno nacional respecto al financiamiento del sistema universitario público.

La medida se produjo en la previa de la cuarta Marcha Federal Universitaria, que se dirige hacia la Plaza de Mayo.

Según la universidad, las clases abiertas permitieron a la comunidad académica exponer el rol de la educación superior y los desafíos presupuestarios actuales.

El gobierno, por su parte, ha señalado que la ley en cuestión es inaplicable y anunció medidas para auditar los fondos destinados a las universidades.
