Boletín Violencia feminicida en cifras. América Latina y el Caribe - N°3. Actuar con sentido de urgencia para prevenir y poner fin a los feminicidios
En 2023, al menos 11 mujeres fueron asesinadas cada día por razones de género en América Latina y el Caribe. Esta cifra muestra que, a 30 años de la Declaración de Acción y Plataforma de Beijing y de la Convención Belém do Pará y los avances normativos desarrollados por los países, el feminicidio sigue presente en la región y es la expresión extrema de los patrones patriarcales y violentos. El documento recoge los últimos datos informados por organismos oficiales al Observatorio de Igualdad de Género de América Latina y el Caribe (OIG) y realiza un llamado a la acción para que que los estados redoblen con sentido de urgencia los esfuerzos para cumplir con su deber de debida diligencia en materia de prevención de la violencia por razón de género y actúen con una perspectiva integral sobre las causas y consecuencias vinculadas a la persistencia de la violencia por razón de género.
