University unions hit back at Milei’s funding veto with 24h strike
Academic and administrative staff at Argentina’s public universities have launched a 24-hour strike to protest the Lower House’s vote to support President Javier Milei’s veto on a bill that would have granted them a funding increase. The National Universities Union Front — which brings together several university professors’ unions — called for their members to go on strike on Thursday and redouble their demands for higher salaries and a larger budget for universities. Over 30 teachers and researchers from the University of Buenos Aires’s Agronomy Faculty resigned recently as the wage crisis worsens, the institution said in a statement. Most deputies rejected Milei’s veto, but the opposition failed to gather the special two-thirds majority required to overturn a presidential block. Students and staff occupied La Matanza University for the first time in its history on Wednesday.

Argentina industry ticks up in August, but still 14% down in 2024
Argentina’s manufacturing sector recorded its second consecutive monthly improvement in August, reaching its highest level during Javier Milei’s administration. However, it contracted by 6.9% year-on-year, and contracted by 13.6% in the first eight months of 2024. According to data released on Tuesday, the INDEC statistics bureau’s Industrial Production Index showed a monthly increase of 1.5% in August.

The largest year-on-year declines were in non-metallic mineral products (-22.2%), machinery and equipment (-19.2%), and wood and paper products (-17.8%).

Argentina’s film industry groups pull out of Mar del Plata film festival
Several professional film associations have announced that they will not participate in the upcoming Mar del Plata International Film Festival as an act of protest against the Argentine government’s policies and management of the National Film and Audiovisual Arts Institute (INCAA). The decision means this year’s festival will not have juries traditionally responsible for presenting awards in a range of categories. The Federation consists of ASA (Argentine Association of Audiovisual Sound Engineers), ADF (Argentine Cinematographic Photography Authors), AADA (Argentine Association of Audiovisual Art Directors), EDA (Argentine Association of Audiovisual Editors) and SAE (Argentine Society of Audiovisual Editors). Earlier this year, the government officially suspended INCAA’s operational funding and laid off scores within the institution. “Our productions and our sources of work are no longer in danger — they are under attack.”

Scaloneta injury crisis: can Argentina's lineup survive five players down?
The Argentine men’s national football team may be in trouble ahead of its World Cup Qualifier commitments in October. So what’s next, and how can he keep Argentina’s blistering pace at the qualifiers — six wins from eight games so far — going? Second there’s 19-year-old Facundo Buonanotte, who has already played for the men’s national team, debuting in a friendly against Indonesia in June 2023. The left-footed striker inherited Ángel Di María’s role as a winger after he retired from the national team González’s absence raises questions for the upcoming international fixtures. Come match day, he’ll likely start on the left, while either Soler or Lisandro Martínez can provide backup on the left side.
