Education of Women in Relation to Their Political and Civil Rights
This document is part of a series from the thirteenth assembly of the Inter-American Commission of Women (Comisión Interamericana de Mujeres (CIM)). The topic of the thirteenth conference was women’s civil and political rights in the Americas. All the documents from this conference focus on various aspects of this topic from women’s suffrage to women’s education.
This report analyzes the equality of suffrage laws for men and women in American nations in order to provide an accurate portrayal of women’s civic equality. Following this analysis, the report provides examples of the CIM’s past support of women’s civic education and lists Inter-American conferences and constitutional articles that supported women’s civil and political rights. It finishes with a description of women’s civic education at some American universities.

Meetings, Missed Connections, and Searches: The Feminist Movement in Latin America
Beginning in 1981, Latin American and Caribbean women’s organizations have hosted regional and national feminist meetings to discuss and support feminist movements across Latin America. Discussion topics at these conferences ranged from lesbianism to prostitution and from racism to economic justice.
This collection of essays is particularly concerned with fleshing out the disagreements that ensued during the seventh conference of Encuentros Feministas. That conference focused on the connection of the feminist movement to the changing political climate due to neoliberalism and globalization. This book gives voice to reflections on that meeting, and its an appendix provides a description of the agreements made during the workshops of the seventh conference. The purpose of these essays was to continue the debates from the seventh conference.
