Hundreds of thousands of women across Latin America’s biggest cities flocked to the streets for International Women’s Day on Sunday, spurred by a growing outcry over inequality, femicide and strict abortion controls.
As Women’s Day events unfold worldwide, with women donning purple to symbolize feminism, the Latin American marches are set against a backdrop of broader social unrest in the region.
Police said 150,000 protesters gathered in Chile’s capital of Santiago, with many carrying signs calling for access to abortion and an end to violence against women. Organizers said the number of protesters was much higher.
