Femicide: Keeping the memory of murdered women alive with maps

Femicide - the killing of women and girls because of their gender - is the most extreme form of gender-based violence.

But many countries do not keep a record of the number of cases.

In Ecuador, Geraldina Guerra tracks cases and maps the lives of victims, keeping their memory alive to help start conversations around femicide and spark a cultural shift in attitudes.
