Bolivian women stage traffic-light protests against femicide, demand enforcement of Law 348

Women in Bolivia are mobilizing at traffic lights to protest gender-based violence, highlighting persistent gaps in enforcement of Law 348, which mandates 30-year sentences for femicide. The protest underscores a disconnect between legal provisions and actual judicial outcomes, as impunity remains a concern. This grassroots action signals growing public pressure on authorities to address systemic failures in prosecuting violence against women.
