Marcela Lagarde was born in Ciudad de Mexico in 1948. She is a Professor of Anthropology at the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico (UNAM), and she has published several books and many articles about feminism. She works as advisor for gender at the United Nations, and has been awarded the medal for outstanding women by the Instituto Nacional de las Mujeres del Distrito Federal. She was a member of the Mexican Congress, in the Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD), and a member of the Committee for Equality and Gender. She was also the Chair of the Committee for research on feminicide in the Mexican Republic. As a member of the Congress, she has actively promoted the implementation of the General Law on Women's Access to a Life Free of Violence, approved in 2007.
