Because women are more exposed to situations of sexual abuse and physical violence after natural disasters and despite this, they are the ones who provide the most effective and organized responses in emergency contexts, launched its fundraising campaign #MujeresReconstruyendoGuerrero. The campaign, which aims to raise 20 million pesos, began on November 14 and will end on January 31, 2024.
