Havana, February 1 (RHC) During the Meeting of Rectors and Directors of Teacher Training Institutions, which is held as part of the Pedagogy 2023 program, teachers from the Latin American and the Caribbean region pointed out among the challenges of teacher training the increase of their social recognition and the quality of education.
