Gender Equity in 2025: A Data-Based Analysis
Just like last year, we have taken on the task of sharing an interactive Dashboard with data on Gender. It's not just about numbers, but about stories, patterns and trends that reveal advances, challenges and areas where change is urgent. Today, we present to you our interactive Dashboard in Power BI with information from 2025, designed to provide a clear view of the situation of women in terms of security, economic participation and demography.
Recommendations for improving your experience using the Dashboard:
If you are on mobile, use it horizontally.
To interact with the dashboard, wait for the data to load. The data will be ready when the Power BI icon appears.
Once loaded, you can change sheets with the > < buttons at the bottom or with the icons on the left side of the dashboard.
We suggest that you click where you see the “detail” button and also click on the different colors of the graphics that serve as a filter.

Women in the Economy: Are We Closing the Gap?
Gender equity is not only measured in terms of violence, but also in access to economic opportunities. In 2025, the female population in Mexico is 3.7 million, slightly lower than the male one (3.8 million). However, the gap is becoming more visible in the economic participation rate: while the 75% of men are active in the economy, only the 47% of women they are.
Despite these challenges, the number of economically active women has grown, reaching 161 million in 2024. This indicates progress, but it also highlights the need to continue promoting policies of labor inclusion, reduction of the wage gap and access to leadership positions.
The reality in numbers: Gender-based violence
The first look at the data reveals an alarming picture: in January 2025 they were registered 27,600 crimes against women, a slight decrease compared to January 2024 (30,650). However, the numbers remain worrisome, with 54 femicides, 496 violations and more than 19,000 cases of family violence.
Emergency calls reflect increased awareness and help seeking: in 2025, they were registered 2.2 million calls, a significant increase compared to 1.8 million from the previous year.
Participation in STEM and leadership
- Women in STEM: The participation of women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) is 32%. While this number represents an improvement, there is still a significant gap compared to men.
- Participation in projects: Forty-six percent of women participate in projects, which indicates their ability to contribute to multidisciplinary teams.
- Participation in leadership programs: Participation in leadership programs is 13%, suggesting the need to promote the development of female leadership.
We invite you to explore our Dashboard. Dive into the facts, discover the stories behind the numbers, and join the conversation. Together, we can build a Mexico where gender equity is a reality, not a dream.
