Inés Cortes
Inés Cortes is a current Uruguayan politician and member of the Frente Amplio (FA). She has been a vocal advocate for women's rights and has actively participated in legislative discussions surrounding family law, particularly in opposition to the law of shared custody that was enacted during the presidency of Luis Lacalle Pou. Cortes has challenged the notion that the justice system in Uruguay inherently favors women in custody cases, arguing that shared custody already exists within the framework of the Child and Adolescent Code.
