A/HRC/28/7 16. Information on significant efforts to codify legislation was also provided. The Code of Constitutional Procedure, the Civil Procedure Code and the Children and Adolescent Code, inter alia, had been adopted and others, such as the Family and Family Procedure Code and the Penal System Code were currently being drafted. Penal reform was an important ongoing task in the Plurinational State of Bolivia, to guarantee effectively the right to life and security of the person. 17. The Plurinational State of Bolivia was working to address challenges to achieve “Good Living”, to establish a truly social and democratic rule of law State. It was a nation that believed in itself and looks to its future with faith and hope. The Plurinational State of Bolivia was today a nation that respected itself and was respected in the international arena. In order to achieve its goals, it had adopted the Patriotic Agenda 2025, based on 13 pillars, establishing a dignified, sovereign and productive State. The main objective of the agenda was to implement the human rights enshrined in the Constitution. 18. The Minister of Justice provided information regarding the rights of women in the Plurinational State of Bolivia. In addition to 26 specific articles on women’s rights in the new Constitution, a gender perspective and inclusive and non-sexist language had also been included. The progressive legal framework and the adoption of public policies had allowed the Plurinational State of Bolivia to make progress. The recognition of gender equality, non-violence and the full enjoyment of human rights for women were concepts that were now to be incorporated in all State and social structures. 19. Feminicide was also now criminalized. The Plurinational State of Bolivia had adopted legislation to guarantee women a life free of violence, with clear institutional responsibilities that allowed for timely intervention. The political activities of women were now also protected by the Law against harassment and political violence towards women now adopted, which prohibited all forms of discrimination against women in society. 20. The Comprehensive Act on guaranteeing a life free of violence for women established judicial procedures to punish those responsible for feminicide, and new offences of violence against women, including physical violence, violence in the media, sexual violence, violence in the provision of health services, economic violence, violence in the education system, violence in the exercise of political rights and leadership, and institutional violence. The law and regulations approved allowed for the progressive creation of shelters for women victims of violence, their children and other dependants. The regulations also established responsibilities for the creation and management of the comprehensive information system for gender-based violence prevention, assistance, punishment and eradication (SIPPASE), in the Ministry of Justice. 21. Information was also provided on progress made with regard to the rights of children and adolescents. Children’s and adolescents’ activities within the family framework and social community played a socialization and training role and were not a threat to children’s rights. Activities were performed within a family framework in their communities, were culturally highly valued and accepted and had the aim of developing their skills for life and the strengthening of their communal life within the “Good Living” framework. The Children and Adolescents Code had been adopted in 2014. 22. With regard to progress made on the rights of nations and indigenous peoples, native and peasant, incorporated in the Constitution, the Plurinational State of Bolivia highlighted the importance of adopting a draft bill on prior, free and informed consultation. The Plurinational State of Bolivia emphasized its willingness and interest in establishing consultation processes to enable communities to introduce their own vision of development. Reference was also made to the importance of a law for the protection of nations and indigenous peoples and natives in highly vulnerable situations, adopted in 2013. 5
