“It is our turn at the beginning of this administration, it is not an issue that we are avoiding, on the contrary, I recognize it, I assume it and it is a great opportunity to work for what we have to continue strengthening and guarantee women a safe state, that is the commitment,” he stated after attending the Third Government Report of the Mayor of León, Alejandra Gutiérrez.
The Gender Violence Alert was issued for the municipalities of Abasolo, Acámbaro, Apaseo el Alto, Apaseo el Grande, Celaya, Cortázar, Dolores Hidalgo, Guanajuato, Irapuato, León, Pénjamo, Salamanca, Salvatierra, Juventino Rosas, Silao, Valle de Santiago and Villagran.
The state government must implement “administrative actions and allocate human and material resources to confront and eradicate femicidal violence and the disappearance of women.”
🟠My commitment to the women and girls of Guanajuato is firm, it is our right to live fully, with dignity and free of violence.
Given the declaration of #AVGM I share with you that we will attend to it as a priority and with absolute responsibility.
A table will be installed…

In addition, the Interinstitutional and Multidisciplinary Group (GIM) will be established in the federal entity, which will monitor and evaluate the actions undertaken by the state and municipal governments.
Although she pointed out that the Gender Violence Alert is a mechanism without profound results, the new governor of Guanajuato reiterated that she will address the problem with the installation of a working group that includes representatives of the three Powers, of the 17 municipalities and experts.
“We know that this mechanism has not been an effective mechanism in reducing violence against women in the states where it has been decreed; it is also true that it is a great opportunity for Guanajuato, to rethink what we have done and the areas of opportunity and establish immediate actions,” he said.
