Besides threats to indigenous rights, strikers have protested against budgets cuts in education and the slow implementation of the 2016 Peace Accords  of which Duque, who's still to complete a year in office, is an outspoken critic.
Pamoja na vitisho kwa haki za wazawa, waandamanaji  wanapinga dhidi ya kukatwa kwa bajeti ya elimu na utekelezaji unaosuasua wa makubaliano ya amani ya mwaka 2016 ambayo Duque ambaye ana mwaka mmoja madarakani ndiye msemaji mkuu.
