LECCIONES APRENDIDAS

It is necessary to form a specialized, formally established, and long-term group on gender issues to ensure gender is integrated into all agreements.
It is important to create participatory spaces for decision-making with organizations and experts in the gender approach (women and LGBTIQ+ people), guaranteeing a plurality of voices and perspectives.
