Nariño Departmental Women's Advisory Council formation

Overview

The Nariño Departmental Advisory Council of Women has been established as a new mechanism to strengthen female influence in public decision-making and monitor institutional actions regarding gender equality and rights.

In late August 2026, Yaquelín Ortíz Marín was elected to the council to represent the Piedemonte Costero subregion. Her role involves integrating local needs into public policy and promoting female participation in public affairs.

Following this, María Victoria Bonilla was elected to represent Ipiales. As a non-remunerated advisory body, the council aims to ensure representation across diverse sectors, including rural, indigenous, and women with disabilities, to ensure compliance with public policies regarding women.
