The challenges of Solomon Jara
Apart from the challenge that it will mean for the future governor to advance in the reconstruction of more than 28,000 damaged homes and affect some 100,000 victims of the Coast and Sierra Sur region, he will have to deal with the high rates of marginalization, poverty, illiteracy and insecurity.
And it is that only six out of 10 inhabitants live in some degree of poverty, which is equivalent to 2.6 million people who have problems acquiring the basic basket, according to figures from the National Council for the Evaluation of Social Development Policy ( Coneval).
The most visible social deficiencies in Oaxaca have to do with access to social security, access to basic housing services, water, light and electricity.
Another area to resolve is insecurity in some cities of the state, because according to state authorities, the rates of family violence, vehicle theft, robbery from passers-by, sexual crimes and robbery from passers-by have increased.
Organizations such as the “Rosario Castellanos” Women’s Study Group regret that the state ranks sixth nationally in femicides, according to statistics so far during the administration of Governor Alejandro Murat Hinojosa, 644 murders of women have been registered.
One more of the critical problems in the state has to do with the displacement of 143 relatives from Tierra Blanca, Copala, from where they left due to a permanent and violent confrontation by supporters of the social organizations Mult and Multi.
