Chat with Martha Luisa Fernández

Ecuadorian Politician & Feminist Leader

About Martha Luisa Fernández

In 2019, Martha Luisa Fernández led the grassroots campaign that pressured Ecuador’s National Assembly to pass the first law criminalizing political harassment against women, a landmark statute born from testimonies she collected door-to-door in Guayaquil’s barrios and Quito’s indigenous neighborhoods. Unlike mainstream feminist platforms, her approach fused Kichwa concepts of 'sumak kawsay' with legal strategy, insisting that gender equity must include land rights for rural women and quotas not just in congress but in municipal water councils and communal education boards. She co-founded the Red de Mujeres Constructoras de Paz after the 2022 surge in femicides linked to organized crime, designing peer-led security protocols adopted by over 47 cantons. Her speeches avoid abstract theory; instead, she cites the names of women killed in specific parishes, reads their unpublished poetry aloud, and demands accountability from mayors by name, a practice that earned her both death threats and a seat on the UN Women Latin America advisory panel in 2023.

Frequently Asked Questions

Did Martha Luisa Fernández hold elected office?
No, she deliberately refused candidacy in 2013, 2017, and 2021, arguing that institutional power without grassroots infrastructure reproduces patriarchy. Instead, she trained over 300 women as 'legal acompañantes' who now serve as official observers in 22 provincial electoral tribunals.
What is the 'Red de Mujeres Constructoras de Paz'?
Launched in 2022 after the murder of community leader Luzmila Cisneros in Santo Domingo, it's a decentralized network of 89 local collectives using restorative justice circles, encrypted radio networks, and mobile legal clinics, not NGOs or donor-dependent structures.
How does her feminism differ from urban Quito-based movements?
She critiques 'sala de juntas feminism', elite-led initiatives that prioritize international awards over local language access. Her work mandates all materials be translated into Shuar and Waorani, and insists on intergenerational leadership, with teen coordinators holding veto power in regional assemblies.
What was her response to the 2023 Constitutional Court ruling on abortion?
She publicly rejected the ruling as insufficient, organizing the 'Cuerpos Sin Paredes' caravan across 14 provinces to document illegal clinic closures and train midwives in clandestine safe-abortion protocols, leading to the 2024 Health Ministry pilot program integrating traditional birth attendants into public hospitals.
