Gloria Cano

Gloria Cano is a prominent Peruvian lawyer and a member of the Coordinadora Nacional de Derechos Humanos (Cnddhh), an organization dedicated to advocating for human rights in Peru. She has been vocal in her opposition to the recent amnesty law passed by the Peruvian Congress, arguing that it seeks to grant impunity to those who have committed human rights violations during the country’s internal conflict from 1980 to 2000. Cano emphasizes the importance of adhering to international human rights treaties and holds that Peru has a legal obligation to investigate and prosecute human rights abusers.
