Mexico's First Woman President Unveils Sweeping Gender Equality Reforms

President Claudia Sheinbaum proposes constitutional changes to address wage gaps and gender violence, marking a historic shift in women's rights.

Claudia Sheinbaum, Mexico's first female president, announced reforms aimed at ensuring equal pay for equal work and gender parity in government.
The proposed changes include modifying six articles of the Constitution and seven secondary laws, with expected approval from Congress.
Sheinbaum's administration plans to implement a women's bill of rights to help identify and combat gender-based discrimination.
Despite gains in female representation, such as the first woman leading the Supreme Court, violence against women remains a critical issue.
Government data reveals that 9 to 10 women are murdered daily in Mexico, underscoring the urgent need for these reforms.
