In Veracruz, measures have been implemented to help women who are dedicated to searching for their missing persons, including a program that involves the development of the capacities of these human rights defenders through training on their rights, the General Law on Enforced Disappearances, as well as creating spaces where they can share their emotions and feelings about the disappearance of their loved ones.
During these months, we have worked specifically on the documentation of cases and the location of graves, disappearances and hot spots in this state through tools such as mapping or timelines. These two activities are necessary because they serve to locate the territory, make diagnoses and recognize, as a group, the areas and times in which their relatives are disappeared in order to recognize the processes as a whole and begin to relate cases among the same women who are searching.
