Costa Rica: Anti-Government Demonstration in San José on 16 January

Several unions have called for an anti-government demonstration denouncing the proposed bill to regulate strikes in Costa Rica on 16 January outside of the Legislative Assembly building in San José.

Advice

More demonstrations may be organized if the bill continues to move through the Legislative Assembly. To minimize safety risk, avoid areas of large public gatherings or protests. Even events intended to be peaceful can escalate unexpectedly and quickly become violent
