The project will combine a legal-dogmatic analysis of the regulatory framework with an empirical-qualitative approach. Evidence will be gathered on judicial practices and the challenges involved in the proper application of the law, and recommendations will be formulated to contribute to more effective judicial responses with a gender perspective.

The initiative is being implemented by CEJA at the request of the Chilean Judiciary, following its award through a public tender process, with the Technical Secretariat for Gender Equality and Non-Discrimination serving as the technical counterpart. For its implementation, CEJA has a multidisciplinary technical team made up of professionals with extensive experience in the field.

Gender equality and the eradication of violence against women represent a central challenge for justice systems across the Americas, an area in which CEJA has been supporting various countries through studies, specialized training, and technical assistance.

With this new project, CEJA reaffirms its role as a regional benchmark in the generation of evidence and practical recommendations to strengthen the prevention and eradication of gender-based violence in the Americas.
