This event will discuss the paradox this election cycle presents. It is historic for gender equity in Mexico, as for the first time, both of the leading candidates are women. However, Mexican women, including those in positions of power continue to struggle to curb atrocious levels of violence against women and entrenched patriarchal attitudes in society.
