Human Rights in Mexico Bibliography
Hi! I am a student at Rice University, and I am planning to expand this article as part of an assignment for my Human Development in Global and Local Communities course. My current plan of revision and expansion is written below.

I would like to revamp the lead and expand it to include a basic introduction to human rights in Mexico, including a definition. It will also include the historical attitudes towards these issues and issues that are of current importance. I would like to update the freedom of press and corruption sections to include information and analysis from newer scholarly sources that cover these particular issues. I would also like to create new sections that focus on female homicides and forced disappearances. These new sections will also draw from scholarly sources for analysis and information on these issues while making sure to link to examples as well.

Gender inequality in Mexico Annotated Bibliography
I am going to be working on contributing to and editing the Gender inequality in Mexico article. The main work I will be doing is reorganizing the article so the layout, but I also hope to add more relevant information based on what is there already. I would like to add more statistically significant information such as gender statistics and global rankings that will give a broader context of gender inequality in Mexico in comparison to the rest of the world. I would also like to reorganize the page be broken up into categories of economic, educational, health, and political inequalities instead of just one broad "current issues" section. Here is my annotated bibliography.
