Engendering Safety: Addressing Femicide in Mexico

The Mexico Institute’s “Engendering Safety: Addressing Femicide in Mexico” initiative brings together major voices to 1) raise awareness, 2) explore the driving factors and enabling environment, and 3) outline action items – both for government and for civil society – that could help reduce and ultimately eradicate femicide in Mexico. To achieve these increasingly complex goals, the MI will host a series of multidisciplinary events and consultations to help inform a report that addresses Mexico’s legal and judicial framework, develop policy proposals, and identify best practices to reduce rising femicide rates.
