The emergence of the Women’s Rights Center (CDM) is closely linked to the history of the Latin American and Caribbean Committee for the Defense of Women’s Rights (CLADEM), a consultative body with the United Nations and established in our country in 1989.

In 1992, some of the feminists who had been working with CLADEM-Honduras decided to form the CDM.

The Women’s Rights Center (CDM) is a feminist, autonomous, critical, and proactive organization that fights to strengthen women’s autonomy, exercise, and enjoyment of rights, citizenship, equality, and gender justice.

Working for women’s human rights through a feminist approach seeks to positively impact women’s lives, promote their autonomy and leadership, and contribute to greater commitment from the public and public authorities to building a society with social justice and gender equality.
