Thousands of people marched against domestic violence in Argentina’s capital of Buenos Aires in April, 2022 as part of a movement now in its seventh year called “Not One Woman Less.” Protesters call on authorities to do more to tackle gender violence. There were frequent femicides happening every 35 hours with nearly 2,000 deaths related to gender violence for last 7 years. 81% of those killed classified as victims of domestic violence. Unfortunately, Argentinian justice is still slow in movement and the police do nothing for solving it.
