Un largo e inconcluso camino hacia la igualdad sustancial y la necesidad de enfoque de género en las políticas públicas

Abstract

Thus, in the first order the history regarding the conquest of women’s rights is addressed, which unfortunately have  been more formal than substantial. Second, it addresses how gender stereotypes have perpetuated situations of inequity, hence the need for a gender approach as an instrument of analysis. Third, the need for social public policies with a gender approach that allow redefining spaces, greater equity, equality, substances that allow the enjoyment of women’s rights and greater participation of women in decision-making.
