Cuba records and monitors cases of gender violence

Havana, Jul 31 (RHC) Cuba has updated statistical information to prevent and deal with cases of gender violence, which follows the National Program for the Advancement of Women, said Attorney General Yamila Peña.

 In a dialogue with the Presidential Press after the recent meeting of the Council of Ministers, Peña praised the "National System for the Registration, Attention, Follow-up and Monitoring of Gender Violence Cases, especially in the Family Environment" that was presented to the National Executive.

The Attorney General explained that a group of 25 experts from the Ministry of the Interior (MININT) and the Supreme People's Court (TSP) developed the computerized and interoperable administrative registry in order to use the platforms of these institutions for the management of criminal proceedings.

She explained that this administrative registry aims to have statistical information for prevention in the fight against gender-based violence, and explained the elements obtained from such a tool in 2023.

According to the data collected, 75 percent of cases of gender-based violence occurred within the household, a trend that continues this year; 72 percent of these victims were between the ages of 25 and 59; and 45 percent were unpaid workers.

Peña noted that the implementation of the National Registration System and the transparency of its results strengthens the rule of law, contributes to the prevention of violence, combats impunity, increases the legal education of the population, and strengthens the social network around a problem that affects everyone.
