Lima, Jun 3 (EFE).- Women’s rights and LGBT+ activists see little choice in Peru’s June 6 presidential runoff, which will pit two socially conservative candidates that oppose abortion, same-sex marriage and gender equality-based education.
Leftist rural schoolteacher and trade unionist Pedro Castillo and right-wing former first lady and ex-lawmaker Keiko Fujimori have radically different political and economic visions for Peru over the next five years.
But activists in the spheres of women’s and LGBT+ rights see no option on the social front in one of the region’s most conservative nations, where abortion is outlawed except when the woman’s life is in danger, same-sex marriage is not legally recognized in any form and no gender-identity law is on the books.
