Honduras has the second highest homicide rate in the world and the rates of sexual violence and femicide are among the highest in the world, in fact the data provided reveal that in the last 20 years, from 2002 to 2022, one woman was killed every day.The incapacity of the authorities results in the high level of impunity, above 94% for most crimes against women and all this impunity contributes to normalize this violence.Natural families are often absent and for many kids the gang replaces this absence and this double track of ferocity and abandonment are the two sides of the same coin.
