Mexico could elect its first female president on June 2. In this webinar, our panelists, who represent renowned Mexican feminist organizations, will discuss what having a female president would mean for human rights, particularly women’s rights. We will examine to what extent the election of a woman to Mexico’s highest office would lead to advances in the feminist, human rights, and gender justice agendas.
