Brazil now faces its own Occupy Movement in public schools. High school students have taken over more than 300 public spaces and formed committees to demand meetings with state officials. Students want officials to investigate alleged misappropriation of money that had been earmarked for education. The government has not said how many schools are occupied. But the movement, which started last year in Sao Paulo, has spread to Rio de Janeiro, Ceara, Para, Mato Grosso, and Rio Grande do Sul. In Rio de Janeiro, the host city of the Summer Olympic Games, teachers have been on strike for more than three months. Rio de Janeiro is broke. Rio is in a situation of despair, said Lucia Adedoyin, a parent and Rio de Janeiro resident. Classroom conditions became so bad, she said, that students decided to occupy their high schools.
