We know that there is structural machismo in our society, where men often think they own women and, therefore, beat, rape and kill. And we don't combat this with speech, we do it with attitude, courage and integration. That's how we've been working. In the first months of the government, we opened police stations to combat violence against women 24 hours a day in the Metropolitan Region of Recife, in Caruaru and Petrolina. We opened 39 lilac rooms in regular police stations, together with the municipalities, we opened 30 new reference centers to welcome women victims of violence. These are mechanisms for us to give them empowerment and security. for her and her family. Because, here, as the first woman governor of Pernambuco, this is my responsibility." (see video above) ??

It has grown three times more than in Brazil. And most of the police stations for women are closed at night and on weekends. We are going to increase the network of police stations to welcome women and guarantee that 100% of them will be open 24 hours a day. In addition, we will create the Pact for the Lives of Women Women to guarantee safety, welcome and protection to Pernambuco women. We will guarantee the purchase of more than 20,000 electronic ankle monitors so that all female aggressors are electronically monitored and expand the reception network. As mayor of Recife, I built eight specific centers to welcome and guarantee protection for women. We will guarantee a safer Pernambuco, especially for women from Pernambuco." (see video above) ?? Return to the beginning of this report. Ivan Moraes (PSOL) See proposals from Ivan Moraes (PSOL) to combat violence against women in PE "I believe that we, in Pernambuco, have an urgent need to combat the main cause of violence against women: the existence of men who commit violence against women. That's why we need an integrated plan to prevent this violence, which is what the feminist movement has been demanding for decades. And this starts at school, with education about gender so that boys understand that they have no right to a girl's body. And it ends with accountability, ensuring that there are women's police stations in all development regions, and then I highlight Ipojuca and Ouricuri, where this demand already exists, where there is already a law demanding that the state build, and the state is absent. These police stations need to be open 24 hours a day, because most of these crimes happen at night. Now, in the midst of this, there is the empowerment of women to recognize when they are in toxic relationships, so that they can get out of those relationships. So, this affects communication, this affects the opportunity for employment and income so that these women can free themselves from this situation." (see video above) ?? Return to the beginning of this report. Renan Hallais (Mission) See proposals from Renan Hallais (Mission) to combat violence against women in PE "The role of men is to take care of women. Unfortunately, what we see are many husbands attacking their wives and, on the street, criminals robbing or abusing them in the middle of the street. These men are bestialized, and we need to re-educate these people. So, my party defends increased penalties for these cases. As governor, I have two proposals: put women's police stations open 24 hours a day and expand them too and use technology to our advantage. A mechanism where the electronic ankle bracelet, [when] it approaches the victim's cell phone, automatically triggers the police and prevents a crime. It's not the woman who has to be afraid, the criminal and the aggressor is the one who has to be afraid." (see video above) ?? Return to the beginning of this report.
