A call from diverse families to the new Education Minister

The article discusses concerns raised by a same-sex couple regarding the appointment of Ilva Myriam Hoyos as Colombia’s new Minister of Education.

They argue that her stance contradicts constitutional protections and question whether she will promote diversity education or revert to repressive policies. The couple calls for respect for the Constitution and equal treatment without needing legal intervention.
