Budget for Women | CEM-H [ANIMATION]

"Honduras, a country that does not guarantee women's rights.

In the last 7 years 3,499 femicides have been reported and 3077 women and girls suffer from sexual abuse annually. 95% of the complaints are unpunished. 

Organized women demand public resources to address this problem. In 2015 and 2016 articles were approved in favor of women in the General Budget of the Republic. These articles require the public institutions to allocate resources to improve the life of women.

Municipalities are obliged to use 5% ot the transfer to support women. If not, according to the law, economic disbursements shall be suspended to disobedient institutions

It this law were fulfilled, women could advance to life free of violence and poverty. However, budgetary provisions have not been fulfilled by the government.  

Why doesn't the State guarantee our rights?"
