Brazil is taking a big step in the fight against violence against women.
President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has signed a new law that requires men convicted of attacking women to wear electronic ankle bracelets. The move is designed to keep victims safe by monitoring aggressors in real time.
The law also ensures that women have access to safety devices that alert them if an aggressor gets too close. It is part of a larger effort called the Brazilian National Pact to Combat Femicide, which brings together the government, Congress, and courts to respond to rising rates of gender-based violence.
With femicide rates at record highs in Brazil, this law is an important step toward protecting women and holding perpetrators accountable.Brazil is taking a big step in the fight against violence against women.
