Student representatives from the University of Zulia (LUZ) are demanding elections for various university positions, which haven’t been held in over six years. The Student Federation Council (FCU) and the Student Center are leading the calls for a vote. Students claim the prolonged delay undermines democratic processes within the institution. They are protesting the lack of representation and the inability to elect leaders through a fair and transparent process. The movement aims to revitalize student governance and address concerns regarding university administration. This situation highlights ongoing issues with democratic participation within Venezuelan higher education. The protest was reported by TalCual, a Venezuelan news outlet.
