Argentine government dissolves anti-discrimination institute

Buenos Aires, Aug 6 (Prensa Latina) Despite criticism from social and trade union organizations, today, the Argentine government officialized the dissolution of the National Institute against Discrimination, Xenophobia, and Racism (Inadi).

Through Decree 696/2024, President Javier Milei ordered the total transfer of material and financial resources of that entity to the Ministry of Justice and the workers to go through a process of relocation or availability.

Through his profile on the social network X, the physician, writer, and holder of a degree in Social Sciences Jorge Rachid denounced the brutal and inhuman measure, typical of “discriminators, racists, phobics, misogynists and negationists”.

Recently, the general secretary of the State Workers Association, Rodolfo Aguiar, stated that Inadi´s elimination means a serious setback for the democratic system in Argentina.

He added that they want to do away with the right to equality and non-discrimination, which is protected not only by our Constitution but also by several international treaties.
