Puede mitigar el evidente desbalance de g\u00e9nero en las altas esferas del Estado (las cortes, los ministerios, etc.), que parecen un club de caballeros a pesar de la ley de cuotas. Puede tambi\u00e9n rescatar la Defensor\u00eda \u2014con los muchos funcionarios comprometidos y valientes que quedan\u2014 para que vuelva a velar por \u201cla promoci\u00f3n, el ejercicio y la divulgaci\u00f3n de los derechos humanos\u201d, como lo manda la Constituci\u00f3n.<br \/>\nLa ocasi\u00f3n singular se da porque el Gobierno, en una terna de lujo, incluy\u00f3 a dos destacadas abogadas que conocen por dentro la Defensor\u00eda y tienen todos los m\u00e9ritos y capacidades para ejercer el cargo. De ello pueden dar fe las personas y las organizaciones con las que labora la Defensor\u00eda: las v\u00edctimas de la violencia que esperan restituci\u00f3n y reparaci\u00f3n; los pacientes que tienen que poner tutelas para que las EPS les den ibuprofeno; los pueblos ind\u00edgenas y comunidades negras clavados en zonas de conflicto; los ni\u00f1os y ni\u00f1as reclutados por las Farc; la academia y las ONG de derechos humanos que trabajan con esas y otras poblaciones vulnerables.<br \/>\nBeatriz Linares encabez\u00f3 la oficina delegada para los derechos de la ni\u00f1ez, la juventud, la mujer y la tercera edad entre 1997 y 2004. Desde all\u00ed impuls\u00f3 la importante Ley de Infancia y Adolescencia, que reemplaz\u00f3 el C\u00f3digo del Menor y puso a tono la legislaci\u00f3n con la concepci\u00f3n de los ni\u00f1os y ni\u00f1as como sujetos de derechos (y no s\u00f3lo como objetos de la autoridad estatal o paterna). Gracias a esa ley, hoy se penaliza el maltrato infantil, se exige una pol\u00edtica p\u00fablica sobre la ni\u00f1ez y se humaniza el trato a los menores infractores. Si es elegida como defensora, sin duda Linares retomar\u00eda la tarea de combatir el reclutamiento forzado de menores y las violaciones de derechos humanos en general, como lo ha hecho desde que sali\u00f3 de la instituci\u00f3n que aspira a dirigir.<br \/>\nOlga Luc\u00eda Gait\u00e1n trabaj\u00f3 en la Defensor\u00eda del Pueblo entre 2000 y 2004, cuando la entidad tuvo sus mejores tiempos: lanzaba frecuentes alertas tempranas para evitar masacres, publicaba juiciosos estudios y manuales de formaci\u00f3n para funcionarios p\u00fablicos, interpon\u00eda tutelas novedosas y aparec\u00eda a diario en los titulares de prensa. El m\u00e9rito de Gait\u00e1n por estos y otros avances fue tal que no s\u00f3lo encabez\u00f3 la unidad de acciones judiciales, sino que fue designada defensora del pueblo encargada. Desde entonces ha seguido trabajando por los derechos humanos desde la cooperaci\u00f3n internacional, la academia y las organizaciones sociales. Como defensora, ciertamente Gait\u00e1n reactivar\u00eda la instituci\u00f3n y le volver\u00eda a dar voz a quienes no la tienen.<br \/>\nCon frecuencia se defiende el machismo en los cargos estatales con el argumento inveros\u00edmil de que no hay mujeres calificadas para ellos. Pero Linares y Gait\u00e1n cumplen con creces las tres condiciones de un defensor del pueblo: la independencia y el coraje para tomar decisiones y hacer denuncias inc\u00f3modas para los poderosos dentro y fuera del Estado, la confianza de las v\u00edctimas, y la experiencia y el conocimiento especializado en derechos humanos.<br \/>\nIndependientemente del resultado de la votaci\u00f3n, la elegida o el elegido tendr\u00e1 el reto de recuperar la credibilidad, la capacidad y la proactividad de la instituci\u00f3n. De ser un defensor del pueblo y no un defensor del puesto.<br \/>\nPosdata: la injusticia contra Sigifredo L\u00f3pez confirma que la detenci\u00f3n preventiva est\u00e1 en crisis. Si no lo hubieran detenido mientras avanzaba la investigaci\u00f3n, la Fiscal\u00eda se habr\u00eda ahorrado el esc\u00e1ndalo. Ojal\u00e1 aprenda la lecci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today the House of Representatives faces the historical opportunity of electing the first female Ombudsman, after 20 years of masculin domain. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1022],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-27612","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","subcategory-gender-discrimination","medium-el-espectador-en","post-scope-aaa-not-blog"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.9 (Yoast SEO v25.9) -
