00:00Of course, it is not the first time that we are listening or talking about the issue of parity and
00:07gender equality.
00:08In the country we have talked about this issue, at least since the 2000, when it was issued the Ley
00:13581,
00:15which determines that in the high positions of the three public powers,
00:19there should be a 30% of women as a base.
00:25After this, the Mission of Observatory Electoral has contributed 11 attempts to regulate this quota of gender
00:31at the parliamentary level and at the level of public corporations such as the board,
00:36councils and local administrations.
00:39The Observatory of Gender in the CEPAL has in its website one of those attempts,
00:45which was in 1999, where there was a law to determine a quota of 30% in the Congress,
00:51but in 2001, it was inconstitucional.
00:55So, in 2011, we have the Ley 1475, which is the Ley of Cuotas,
01:00which determines that for the lists that choose five or more crudges,
01:05should be represented at least a 30% of gender or the majority.
01:11In this case, it is pensated for women,
01:14because in that time, there were, I believe,
01:20the lists in which there were only women candidates,
01:23and at the level of the country, there were only 14 departments
01:26those who have to comply with this mandate,
01:29or, not even the half of the country.
01:31With this Ley of Cuotas,
01:34it is clear that in the elections of 2014,
01:37it increased the participation of the women,
01:39as well as the women elected,
01:41but, in 2015,
01:45the Legislative 0-2,
01:47which is the Equilibrium of Poder,
01:49which changed the Article 262,
01:53imposing the PAO,
01:54which is Paridad, Alternancia, Universalidad.
01:57Well, the Alternancia, as well as we know,
01:59is man, woman, woman, man,
02:01and the Universalidad is that no only
02:03the 14 departments with the obligatory
02:06to present a 30% of candidates,
02:10but that at the level of general,
02:11in all the country.
02:13However, this Act of Legislative
02:15didn't determine how to achieve that,
02:17and that was a pendient for the other years
02:20of the Congress,
02:21until now that we have achieved it,
02:23as well as we know,
02:24and those intentes,
02:26well, for mention some,
02:27is the Ley Estatutaria 83-2015,
02:30which was like the first attempt
02:32after the Act of Legislative
02:34of the Equilibrium of Poder,
02:35which was not done.
02:36It also happened with the Ley 21-21-2016,
02:40the Act of Legislative 12-2017,
02:43which had the component
02:45of the Act of the Paz
02:47in which we intended,
02:48in the point of participation
02:49political,
02:50to promote more
02:51the participation of women
02:52in the politics,
02:53and in this Congress
02:55actual,
02:56has been contabilized
02:57the Reforma Política
02:58of 2018
03:00and the Reforma Política
03:02that,
03:02that,
03:03the last week,
03:05the purpose,
03:06as well as the list
03:07was to determine
03:09the Parity
03:10and the Alternancia
03:12and this
03:12was not done.
