Type:RecommendationSession:14th session, November 2012Status:AcceptedContents:Ensure access to sexual and reproductive health services for adolescences.ImplementationNational Report:

- Gender equality
Type:Review DocumentationSession:2nd session, May 2008Status:N/AContents:With a view to the advancement of the historically marginalized sectors of society, article 191 of the Constitution establishes quotas for gender representation and for representation of the peasant and indigenous communities and native peoples in regional councils; the same applies to municipal councils.
