Abstract
The objective of this article is to analyze violence against women on the border between Brazil (state of Mato Grosso do Sul) and Paraguay (Department of Amambay) through online journalistic reports and the legislation of both countries. From readings of decolonial feminism, it was possible to identify and describe how these information channels give visibility to gender violence on that border. Qualitative research of documentary analysis was carried out with the use of the descriptors women and violence. Femicide is the most recurrent crime in the twin cities; its modus operandi sometimes has characteristics equivalent to execution-type crimes and is usually perpetrated by people close to the victim. It is hoped that this study will contribute to the awareness and visibility of violence against women in this border region.
