description In Colombia rules since 1991 a new Constitution that recognizes, on the one hand, the multicultural character of the nation and, on the other one, the equality of women and men. Thus, it tends to produce a boundary between social categories, which discourages the exercise of the rights of the Indigenous female citizens. To remedy this legislative gap, in 2012, a local association of indigenous women’s human rights proposed to strengthen the alliance between the indigenous women of the country, around its first shadow report, which was presented to the Union Nation Comitee for the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CoEDAW).

In Colombia rules since 1991 a new Constitution that recognizes, on the one hand, the multicultural character of the nation and, on the other one, the equality of women and men. Thus, it tends to produce a boundary between social categories, which discourages the exercise of the rights of the Indigenous female citizens. To remedy this legislative gap, in 2012, a local association of indigenous women’s human rights proposed to strengthen the alliance between the indigenous women of the country, around its first shadow report, which was presented to the Union Nation Comitee for the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CoEDAW). Colombia ratifica en el 1991 una nueva Constitución que reconoce, por una parte, el carácter multicultural de la nación, y por otro, la igualdad de las mujeres y de los hombres. Así, tiende a fijar las categorías sociales, lo que desfavorece el ejercicio de los derechos de las ciudadanas indígenas. Con el fin de remediar este hiato legislativo, una organización de defensa de derechos humanos de las mujeres indígenas propone en el 2012 reforzar una alianza entre las mujeres indígenas del país, alrededor de la elaboración de su primer informe sombra (shadow report) ante el Comité para la Eliminación de las Discriminaciones hacia las Mujeres (CoEDEF).
