Lisbon, February 14 (RHC)-- In Portugal, more than 150,000 schoolteachers and their supporters marched through Lisbon to protest soaring inflation and low wages. 

Portugal’s lowest-paid teachers earn less than $1,200 a month.  They’re demanding pay increases, less punishing schedules and faster career progression.

One organizer of the protesters in Lisbon, the Portuguese capital, told reporters: “We have been badly treated for a long time by a society that forgets the importance and responsibilities of education.  So we are here today, and we will be here for many more days to come.”
