Los derechos de las mujeres desde sus voces: aportes epistemológicos a la teoría feminista en América Latina

This article shows the epistemological contributions of Latin American feminism to the critique and reconceptualization of human rights, in this sense from Latin America and the Caribbean, due to multiple social and historical factors that in an unprecedented way, compared to other continents, points out the androcentrism in human rights and lays the foundations for the recognition of the right to live a life free of violence. This research analyses some of the causes and contexts that underlie these epistemic contributions, from a qualitative and ethnographic methodology that responds to situated knowledge through interviews with key women in Costa Rica, establishing the synergies that are built at the Latin American level by the movement of feminists and human rights defenders.
