Family Code

We learned about its relationship with the Constitution and the ways in which both have changed in the past 40-50 years. The 2022 Family Code emphasizes on the construction of a country as a community, and positions relationships and ties of affection above blood relations. The new 2019 constitution now includes a chapter on families, and follows a principle of non-discrimination due to sexual orientation or gender identity. It's important to note that the 1975 Family Code was considered advanced for its time, but the current Family Code is now officially the most advanced in all of Latin America.
