A legislative initiative to guarantee comprehensive protection for children, adolescents, and young people who lost their mothers due to feminicide in Colombia.
This bill, filed by Representative Carolina Giraldo Botero, seeks to ensure that the Colombian State provides comprehensive, dignified, and long-term protection to the sons and daughters of women who were victims of feminicide.
The initiative recognizes that feminicide not only takes the life of a woman, but also leaves behind children and families in conditions of deep vulnerability, requiring a coordinated and permanent institutional response.
The bill focuses on children, adolescents, and young people up to 25 years of age who depended on a woman victim of feminicide, guaranteeing their fundamental rights and opportunities for a dignified future.
Minors and young people up to 25 years old who lost their mothers due to feminicide and depended on them economically or emotionally.
Relatives or legal guardians who assume the care of children affected by feminicide.
Families whose lives have been deeply affected by gender-based violence and loss.
Feminicide leaves irreversible consequences for children and families. This bill represents a decisive step toward recognizing these victims and ensuring that the State assumes its responsibility to protect their rights, dignity, and future.
