Women and Gender Equity

Presidential delegate Julio Anativia disclosed that Camila Contreras, the seremi for Women and Gender Equity in Chile's Biobío Region, remains in office on medical leave due to pregnancy, halting Antaris Varela's assumption of the role chosen by José Antonio Kast's government. The former seremi, appointed in 2024 by Gabriel Boric, submitted a pregnancy certificate after resigning. Varela will join as staff and subrogate as needed.
