The presidents of the Senate, Davi Alcolumbre; the Chamber of Deputies, Hugo Motta; the Supreme Federal Court Justice, Edson Fachin, and Women’s Minister Marcia Lopes, among other authorities, will attend the ceremony at the Noble Hall of the Planalto Palace.

The Brazilian Presidency stated that the Pact establishes an integrated commitment among the three branches of government to combat this kind of lethal violence, with actions focused on prevention, protection, accountability of perpetrators, and the guarantee of rights.

The initiative aims to strengthen networks to combat gender-based violence, promote information about rights and structures for protection and prevention of this scourge, and ensure the adoption of equal treatment between men and women in the institutional culture.

Lula wrote on his social media last weekend, upon confirming the launch of the Pact, that this is not just a battle for women, but a commitment of all of society.

According to data released in January by the Ministry of Justice and Public Security, about 1,470 femicides were recorded in Brazil in 2025, a record surpassing the 1,464 cases reported in 2024.
