Challenges for the Constructing of Equity and Equality in Mexico
Mexico stands ahead of the rest of Latin American countries in terms of legal transformation on behalf of gender equality, non-discrimination, and laws for the treatment and follow-up of gender-based violence. Yet, although significant progress has been achieved during the last two decades, thanks to the uninterrupted efforts of feminists and women’s networks in collaboration with female and male decision-makers, gender disparities continue to limit women’s empowerment in various areas. These inequalities include education, employment, teenage pregnancy, gender violence, and sexual division of labor.
