Red Shoes Protest in Mexico Brings Attention to Gender Violence

In Mexico, on average, 10 women and girls are murdered every day, and less than 10% of those cases are ever solved.

Activists are placing hundreds of red women’s shoes on Mexico City’s main square, to highlight the problem of gender-based violence in the country.

This protest installation has been going on for over 10 years, and each pair of shoes represents a woman who has disappeared in Mexico.
