Publication date: 08/06/2022

This document is the result of a detailed systematization of the legal provisions that exist in 19 countries of Latin America and the Caribbean in terms of digital gender violence. The document offers a tool for analysis and comparison between the different countries of the region. This systematization had a double objective: to make a regional mapping of the current state of the law in this matter, and to generate information for the design of regulatory reforms and a coordination protocol between data protection authorities, prosecutors and other government agencies that participate in attention to cases of digital gender violence.
