Project Details

Description

According to information from women's organizations, there has been a silent escalation of women's deaths because of their condition of being a woman "femicide" in the hands of men and relatives or by organized mafias such as the emblematic example of Ciudad Juárez in which misogyny is the way in which violence is executed. The investigation is aimed at observing and interpreting violence against women and femicide from different angles: women will contribute perceptions and experiences; The magnitude, the types and behavior that includes the outcomes will be obtained from the analysis of the official information information, prosecutors, courts and criminal courts. Opinion generators observe the fact from the news and the scandal at the same time that the true mobiles and the serious thing of this severe public health problem relegate. The information obtained, after being processed by qualitative and quantitative methods, will allow the elaboration of guides and brochures to more radial wedges that will be used to sensitize society and promote the prevention of violence against women and femicide. The results will lead to debates in the public-legal space to reveal the silencers that perpetuate the abusive exercise of power and persistence of impunity against violence against women and femicide. The University may integrate values and attitudes tending to guarantee the suitability of medical and legal reports as well as judicial investigation. The university and society will assume the challenge of promoting the defense of rights, accompanying the processes of emancipation and guaranteeing in its bosom and from their actions the full exercise of the citizenship of men and women.
