Overview
- A framework pact signed Monday by the Supreme Court, the Judicial Administration Body, and the Women’s Ministry sets up joint channels for victim care, referrals, and staff training across the justice system.
- The agreement creates shared policies, programs, internal rules, and decision processes designed to prevent, address, and punish violence against women.
- Senior leaders from the Supreme Court, the Judicial Administration Body, the electoral tribunal, and the Women’s Ministry attended the signing, signaling a coordinated push across institutions.
- Court leaders said formal equality has not delivered real change and highlighted impunity levels they put near 93% to 98% for crimes that go unreported or uninvestigated.
- The new collaboration builds on gender-judging protocols in place since 2016 and a 2024 constitutional reform on equality, after regional human-rights judges faulted Mexico for weak real-world application.
