[Argentina] Protests: Peaceful protest

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. On March 31, 2025, tourist guides and protected area workers demonstrated in Salta, Argentina, protesting government deregulation that allows unlicensed individuals and companies to provide tourism services. Similar protests reportedly occurred in other Argentine cities.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates. If the protests expand significantly, they could temporarily disrupt regional tourism infrastructure and transportation networks in affected areas, though the peaceful nature and sector-specific focus suggest limited broader economic impact.

Watch points

• Monitor for escalation beyond peaceful demonstrations or expansion to other economic sectors
• Track government response and potential policy adjustments regarding tourism deregulation
