Yelinda Hernández is a prominent leader of the Asociación de Maestros Independientes Auténticos, an organization actively participating in the ongoing teachers' strike in Panama. She has been vocal about the need for formal agreements before teachers return to the classrooms, arguing that doing so without guarantees would undermine their struggle for better conditions. Hernández has emphasized the importance of not being swayed by unfulfilled promises from education authorities, particularly in the context of the prolonged educational crisis affecting students and families.
