Human rights organizations, religious entities and the Association of State Workers (ATE) will hold a hug at the property this Friday. They target the Minister of Justice, Mariano Cúneo Libarona, and the Secretary of Human Rights, Alberto Baños.
Human rights and religious organizations and the Association of State Workers (ATE) call for a meeting this Friday at 5 p.m. embrace the Memory and Human Rights Space (former ESMA) in repudiation of 600 layoffs and the dismantling of policies of memory, truth and justice and human rights.
As reported ATE“there are more than 600 families that will be affected by massive layoffs in January.” They hold the Minister of Justice responsible, Mariano Cuneo Libaronaand to the Secretary of Human Rights, Alberto Bañosto “disarm, dismantle and empty” the area.
The layoffs are linked to the official announcement of the termination of labor contracts paid by the Association of Automotive Dealers of the Argentine Republic (ACARA). With this decision, 2,400 workers from the Ministry of Justice, including those from the Human Rights Secretariat, received news of the end of this type of employment without any specific answer as to whether they will be rehired under another modality.

This decision had been announced by the minister Cuneo Libarona last December 17. “This is just beginningwe are going to continue adjusting every privilege and closing the policy boxes. The joke is over“he stated then.
Human rights organizations denounce the imminent closure of Memorial Sites
From CHILDREN-Capital, They reported that “the real reason for the dismantling is political and goes from the cruelty of the dismissal to what is functional for denialism and apology of State terrorism.”
Other human rights organizations, including Madres y Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo and the Argentine Federation of Evangelical Churches, stated that the decision to end the ACARA contracts “smeans the closure of dozens of programs and especially the emptying of the Human Rights Secretariat and the imminent closure of the Sites of Memory!”
This would affect dozens of Memory Sites throughout the country. These are spaces where clandestine detention centers operated during the last dictatorship, such as Garage Olimpo and Club Atlético.
