First Death Anniversary Note

Zero Tolerance against Female

Women can defend

Interview with the Director of the International Network of Women in the east of Lima Magaly Nuñez.

What are the consequences of violence?
consequences it may bring to a person who has been the victim of violence include: depression, dysfunctional family problems, emotional problems and conflicts in the rate, and members of the core of each of these families have many problems that as a result of violence gives a multiplier effect. Testimonial
So I tell you, for my family, as I hate my father multiply it in my life, and that is replicated in the lives of many children who are the product of this problem must be witnesses to this violence. In the future this influence to other families, but in greater proportion. This means that violence has a ripple effect for generations.

How alarming is this problem in the East?
This area has a high rate of family violence and is in the San Juan de Lurigancho, according to public hearings have been going at different points in Lima throughout the month of nonviolence. It has been determined to San Juan de Lurigancho with the highest rate of violence, followed by Vitarte and Chosica. Cones are also North and South that had high rates of violence.

The reference we have is: 4 out of 10 families are raped every minute and 4 women have been victims of violence.
Do you think children should be informed about this evil?
Yes, children must be informed about this issue that concerns the whole society. There is an important line that many women do not know, and I congratulate the Ministry of Women, which is raising awareness of this issue through programs and campaigns. This line 100 is free, hence the assaulted person may report the matter. But most of the assaulted does not, so a family member can also report the matter because the person usually does not say violated, is not capable.

What are the rights that every woman must enforce?
is important to learn to have the right to respect for life, respect for to have a good relationship with others if they respect me I respect. It is important to know that there is a mutual way, unfortunately not. I think it is a right that everyone should have. Not because women have more rights than you man, no, both men and women have equal rights.
What happens is that there is a macho culture that unfortunately has been building for many years and has become embedded in society that lead to women never knew their rights. An important fact is that in 1950 the woman already has participation, because in the past did not vote, were discriminated against from the heads of their families, their parents, telling them you into the kitchen, you're no good, you're just getting ready to wash pots , plates and raise children. So that concept to many people, especially women do not develop mentally and unfit to claim their rights.
But over time it has been lost, now a woman is able to fend for herself without a man.

How do you support these women victims of violence?
The network currently has 10,000 women at Lima. We try to give women an important value that is, women know and have adequate self-esteem and feel rejected, which has no sense of guilt, many women are born with the guilt embedded because they are women. But they have to have that proper self-esteem and loved, valued. Say, if I am woman and I'm damn happy, I'm the best, feel good about themselves.
There are talks, programs where they learn how to take advantage and give them about their rights. We are working with them to learn to self-generate. These women are very creative and enterprising, it is important that them so they can learn to fend for themselves. Thanks to that female entrepreneurs have been created.
In March we had a women's expo was a nice experience. The Miss Peru came to inaugurate the event. Anali Cabrera was also a recognized actress in the half, despite suffering from cancer came to say to all women. Though you have nothing, the health you play against, you can fight for your life and you can go ahead and be happy.
The Women's International Network is promoting the excitement of living, thank God for everything you have. Here are the basics that we as an institution we are developing and pushing in women.

up was conducted last Friday November 20 in Chosica. What was the purpose of this?
So, we were about 800 women who paraded through the streets of Chosica. Chosica Mayor joined us in this event. Although the means of areas Magaly know me said this is not going to, at most will be 50 or 100. Nobody believed that we would be so many women, were surprised to see so many women actually assembled. Many came from areas such as: Cajamarquilla, Cerro Sweet Potato, Yanacoto, Jicamarca and other areas gathered in this place and marched for the welfare of themselves and their families. One of our goals
was to sensitize people. We left with our signs that said NO TO THE FAMILY VILOENCIA, and why not women, because we know that the problem lies there in the family. I really believe that families are the hardest hit with this. 1000 signatures collected on the spot so you can manage a CEM Chosica Area.

Women who are victims of violence. What would you say?
To you who are reading these lines tell you that you're not alone, you have someone important in your life, this 24 hours a day, he is Jesus.
Now they are having legal bases so you can get closer to the nearest police station especially a Women's Emergency Centre, or call the 100 line which is free and you can, the other thing is when you're here to help you like we always be at your service. The women delegates are also there to support you, there are 39 members of Congress who are responsive to the call, the sensitivity to help another woman in need, especially for women to reclaim their rights and do not remain silent about this fact. I send my best wishes and move on, do not let fall.
