About the March 8
After several months of writing little or rather not writing, I invite you to share a few lines because the occasion warrants and the silence is not something that will make merit.
On 28 November of that happened, it was a day of great surprise and sure many leave with a voltage not entangled with joy. The government through the Supreme Decree 010 - MIMDES apologized Afroperuano people for the abuse, exclusion and discrimination committed in their grievance. Among the most important considerations of the document is mandated to promote public policies in this sector of the population. On the other hand, in August 2009, the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, CERD, referring to the Peruvian State specific recommendations regarding people of African descent; including the need for indicators and more specific statistics on this sector of the population.
We as a country to overcome enormous challenges and the Peruvian government obligations that can not fail to comply. Afro-Peruvian women insist on the need for data and indicators that can be expressed with vivid clarity not only the percentage of Afro-Peruvians, but also clearly highlight the gaps in access to the full exercise of our fundamental human rights.
reject remain part of the 2% of the population accessing higher education, we also reject, not be included in the data and indicators requiring maternal mortality rates, teenage pregnancy, access to contraception, etc. You can not build a democratic country for everyone, if that building does not reflect and incorporate the entire population.

From the challenge of integration and the need to continue building from women partnerships that allow us to walk together and recognized. To commemorate 100 years of the Declaration of International Women's Day, we reaffirm our commitment to continue fighting for a world less racist, more inclusive and with full rights for all.
