Unfortunately I don't have cluster specific variables. I'm worried
that you say fixed-effects logit will not solve the problem. I've read
the reference manual and it says that clogit ( which is the same as fe
logit) can be used for matched-case controles studies. In my data
every individual in a certain cluster for which the dependet variable
is zero would be a control for the rest (for which the dependent is
one). It also says that it doesn't matter if each cluster has a
different number of observations.

Finally, in the book of Wooldridge of panel data (p 496) it says that
an unobserved effect framework can be used  for cluster samples. The
author cites the work of Geronimus and Korenman (1992) where they "use
sister pairs to determine the effects of teenage motherhood on
subsequente economic outcomes". They use a fixed-effects approach when
the outcome is binary.
In my model the most important omitted variables correlated with the
regressors are geographical access and cultural barriers.

Please, I would like to be confirmed if my approach is really incorrect.
