The Mexican State of Chihuahua is the most dangerous place to be a young woman in the Americas. In the last ten years, in Juarez and Chihuahua City, some 275 women have been murdered and at least 250 more have disappeared.
Concerned citizens around the world are planning a wide variety of actions to coincide the Mexican celebration of Day of the Dead. Street protests, vigils in front of Mexican consulates, cultural events and religious services to commemorate the victims will take place between October 31 until November 2, 2003.
