    The Wider Image – Retirees on the edge: Argentina’s protesting

    Olga Beatriz Gonzalez, 89, poses for a portrait in her kitchen, where she prepares food for people in need, at her home in Buenos Aires, Argentina, May 1, 2025. Gonzalez is retired, hustling to make ends meet and runs a soup kitchen from her home to help others struggling. The Argentine pension system is stretched beyond breaking point, with nowhere near enough income to pay out what many had expected after years of hard work. "We are people who have done our duty, that is, we are doing our bit and reaching the last part," said Gonzalez. "And we don't want to arrive in so much need."

    ABOUT QUEWS

    We are a news service born out of a global loss of confidence in media and destabilising polarisation of attitudes. We believe it is possible, indeed necessary, to create a public forum where vital issues of the day are discussed, debated, analysed and circulated.
