Annotated Bibliography

1. *Kulyk, H. (2022, December 12). Bringing an end to violence against women and girls and femicide or feminicide: A key challenge for building a care society. Gender Equality Observatory. https://oig.cepal.org/en/documents/ Bringing-end-violence-against-women-and-girls-and-femicide-or-feminicide- key-challenge.

This article provides valuable insight on many trends, taking into account variables that I plan to discuss (relationship to perpetrator, migration, country). This article also discusses the different mechanisms that enable femicide.

This article gives insight into violence against women, specifically regarding femicide in the North Triangle of Central America (NCTA). This provides prevalent information on the topic of migration, and specific trends in the geographic region of El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala; I plan to elaborate on both of these in the article.

This source is also useful to discuss the justice systems in Latin America. It discusses the response of people, and state governments to a country passing a law, and how these laws are sometimes not taken into practice by the state government.

7. *Boira, S., Tomas-Aragones, L., & Rivera, N. (2017). Intimate partner violence and femicide in Ecuador. Qualitative Sociology Review, 13(3), 30-47.
