#VivasNosQueremos
24/4/2016
Mexico
On April 24th, citizens, organizations and groups around Mexico participated in the national mobilization against sexist violence using the slogan #VivasNosQueremos.
Some of the demands that the women's groups announce was an end to judicial favouritism towards men in the criminal process, training on gender violence in public institutions, employment opportunities and safe working conditions to combat sexism in the country.
One activists said, " It is evident that social re-education, which teaches men not to harass, to not violate, not hit, not threaten, not to violate, not to enslave, not to abuse and not kill women is necessary and girls. We demand the cessation of hate messages, which punish anybody who spread sexist stereotypes that promote gender violence and misogyny,"
