This was acknowledged by official sources at the end of last April in a national <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/foroalc2030.cepal.org\/2019\/sites\/foro2019\/files\/informe_nacional_voluntario_de_cuba_sobre_implementacion_de_la_agenda_2030.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">report<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) on how the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is being addressed. Although the report is from 2019, the specific data is from 2016. That year the femicide rate was 0.99 per 100,000 inhabitants of the female population older than 15 years. For a similar period, that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/oig.cepal.org\/sites\/default\/files\/nota_27_esp_0.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">rate<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is low compared to countries such as El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Mexico or Brazil; and high in relation to Peru, Chile or Panama.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2016 the female population in those ages was 5,052,239. Then, approximately 50 women were killed in crimes officially classified as femicides. About one per week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>The first data<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A year ago it seemed unlikely to have a number on these crimes. Since 2005, femicide has been a topic of international and regional interest, however in Cuba it was treated as a foreign issue. The same has not happened with the general issue of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ipscuba.net\/genero\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">violence<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> against women, which has been more diligently approached.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Women and Family Attention Houses of the Federation of Cuban Women have included the issue on their agenda since 1990.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Different institutions, groups, projects and\/or citizen efforts, are working or have worked on the question. The list is long: the campaigns Evoluciona, Unite, Eres m\u00e1s, Van de la mano, the Network of Afro-Descendant Women, the Afro-Cuban Group, the Afro-Descendant Neighborhood Network, the Nosotrxs project, the Club del Espendr\u00fa, the Obsession duo, the blogs <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/negracubanateniaqueser.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Negra Cubana Ten\u00eda que Ser<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/asambleafeminista.wordpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Asamblea Feminista<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the Mirar desde la Sospecha space, the Chair on Women Studies of the University of Havana, the Bertha C\u00e1ceres space of the Institute of Philosophy, the SemLac-Cuba platform, and many others. Intellectuals and artists have expressed themselves, in different situations and systematically, against cases of gender-based violence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the last two years, the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/author\/ailynn-ts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">agenda<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the unofficial media (in all its spectrum) has multiplied the presence of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tremendanota.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">works<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on these issues. The official media also show a quantitative increase in their attention regarding this. The views are diverse. It\u2019s not possible to speak of a shared feminist focus, but of a greater interest in the field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Street sexual harassment is currently one of the first plans. Other gender-based violence receives less attention. The debate on violence in work, political, cultural, educational or academic spaces is more scarce. Nor has the relationship between violence, inequality and economic autonomy of women been studied in depth. The awareness that the so-called domestic violence is not a private matter, but that it requires public intervention, is still in the making.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, there is no doubt that the panorama has changed in favor of the visibility of the issue, especially in Havana and in some provincial capitals. Less in the municipalities and rural towns, or on the margins of urban life. It\u2019s also clear that in institutional structures there is some degree of listening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2018, the first legal office against gender-based violence was created in Cienfuegos. There has been no news about what has been the course of its work, but the institutionalism is created and we hope that for the good of that province and the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In that same year and place the murder of a woman by three men, after raping her, was <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/opinion\/columnas\/sin-filtro\/fue-feminicidio-y-eso-importa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">followed up<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2015for the first and only time so far. The event resounded throughout the country, largely through the social media. The treatment in the <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.5septiembre.cu\/comienza-juicio-a-acusados-por-violacion-y-asesinato-de-joven-en-cienfuegos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">local media<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was worthy, despite the lack of training on these subjects. The unofficial media did the same.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, in the new Constitution of the Republic of Cuba, gender-based violence is recognized as a problem to be addressed. This state commitment is probably one of the best steps taken in the constitutional text, which in other aspects accumulates <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/opinion\/columns\/no-filter\/the-year-of-the-dispute-over-the-magna-carta\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mistakes<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because of all the above, this first data on femicide is a victory won by many. It\u2019s also a partial victory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What does it say, what doesn\u2019t it say, what could it say?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The data offered to ECLAC, although valuable, is distorted. To begin with, the problem\u2015femicides\u2015is under-calculated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Technically speaking, some countries specify &#8220;intimate femicides&#8221; within the crime of femicide. This includes the murder of women at the hands of their partners, former partners, family members or cohabitants. The Cuban approach, however, is even more specific: only partners or ex-partners.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/opinion\/columnas\/sin-filtro\/vivas-nos-queremos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">definition<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> doesn\u2019t allow talking about femicide if the murderer is a cohabitant other than the partner, for example. Nor would it take into account Leydi Maura Pacheco Mur, the woman murdered in Cienfuegos in a typical act of femicide, after being raped. Neither Tomasa Causse Fabat (Cienfuegos, 2018) or Delia Echeverr\u00eda Blanc (Santiago de Cuba, 2017), <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/opinion\/columns\/no-filter\/to-kill-and-let-die\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">both<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> murdered by their daughters\u2019 ex-partners, also violated. So, the approximately 50 women recognized as victims of femicide in 2016 are only part of the total that can be qualified as such.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Cuba, femicides are not a criminal-legal category. Therefore, crimes are not recorded or looked at with a magnifying glass. To describe a murder as femicide, it\u2019s not enough for the victim to be a woman, but rather the circumstances of the crime, who carries it out, whether it\u2019s rape or abuse, and so on, have to be analyzed. If criminal procedures don\u2019t recognize femicides, it\u2019s very difficult to record them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, the data on femicide in the Cuban report allows other analyzes. There it\u2019s mentioned, briefly, that between 2013 and 2016 the cases decreased by 33%. Assuming that information is correct, it\u2019s possible to calculate the number of femicides by partners and ex-partners in 2013. If in 2016 there were 50, in 2013 they were 66. That year, the rate was 1.40, higher than 0.99 in 2016. [i]<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/files.sld.cu\/dne\/files\/2014\/05\/anuario-2013-esp-e.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Statistical Health Yearbook<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, in 2013 the total number of women killed because of attacks was 143. And in 2016, 121. [ii] The conclusion, in proportional terms, is as follows: in 2013, 46% of women&#8217;s deaths because of aggressions were femicides carried out by partners and ex-partners. In 2016, these represented 41%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These calculations, oblique in the absence of clear and systematic information, show a fact: even though the total number of women killed by this specific type of aggression varied each year, the proportion of women murdered by their partners and former partners changed little.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If we make a comparison with global figures, there are new clues. According to a UN <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.unodc.org\/unodc\/en\/data-and-analysis\/global-study-on-homicide.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">report<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> published last November, in 2017 34.48% of the homicides involving women worldwide were murdered by their partners or former partners. The Cuban ratio exceeds the global one. The political conclusion is that, in Cuba and in relation to its own standards, the home and intimate relationships are a place of greater danger with respect to the world trend; and they are a place of almost equal danger to that of the national public space.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although Cuban rates are lower than global and Latin American rates (in Latin America the rate of women murdered by their partners or former partners was 1.6 in 2017), the proportion with respect to total deaths is higher. That fact should be a central sign for public policies and citizens\u2019 efforts in the fight against violence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the same time, part of the femicides are committed as part of long chains of abuse and violence. According to an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ipscuba.net\/genero\/feminicidio-en-cuba-en-la-etapa-del-reconocimiento-oficial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">IPS<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> interview with Ivon Ernard, a psychiatrist who coordinates the Counseling for Women in Situations of Violence, the women who come to see her have been violated between five and fifteen years before. Many of them, or those who have ended up dead, have reported their aggressors, and have received minimal institutional actions as a response.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The writer Laidi Fern\u00e1ndez de Juan impeccably related that route with her mini short story &#8220;Nader\u00edas.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He did what he did to her and she got the way she did, so she had to respond as she responded, and everything ended as it ended, because he couldn\u2019t stay as he stayed, nor could she stop saying what she said, and that\u2019s why when the police came, what happened happened, and the neighbors hid as they hid, while she screamed as she screamed and the children ran as they ran and the government pretended to do as if it did, but everyone knew that nothing would happen, and that again he would do what he would do and she would stay as she was going to stay, because it\u2019s been the same as it has always been.<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Cuba murders don\u2019t go unpunished and in general criminal proceedings are guaranteed in those cases. However, judging once death happens is not the only necessary response, nor is it the most efficient. Ensuring that women and girls have sufficient guarantees for their safety in the community, the home, work spaces, in the street or while relaxing is the true and most honest gesture against impunity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that official sources in Cuba recognize that femicides exist, we are a step forward to analyze the problem, to dig into its causes, to think of better solutions. We have against us the belief that &#8220;between husband and wife nobody should get involved,&#8221; the institutional routines that are blind or short-sighted to cases of sexist violence, and the lack of statistics and analysis. We have in our favor the work of many people, the growing awareness on the subject and now we also have a first data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">_____________________________________________________<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[i] The female population older than 15 years at that time was 4,699,120<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[ii] Although the decrease between 2013 and 2016 seems to be large, no hasty conclusions should be drawn before observing the series.
