Intern at INADI: the comptroller fired a K militant who criticized her management in the Ministry of Women: "Not even in the macrismo did they proceed in this way"

Albornoz, who identifies as "non-binary", explained that Pena -once at the top of INADI- asked for the termination of her contract due to the successive criticisms that the Argentine LGBT Federation

"A non-binary militant of the sexual diversity movement and of spaces of the national and popular movement", as it is presented, Albornoz entered the State

to work in SEDRONAR (Secretary of Comprehensive Drug Policies of the Argentine Nation).

In 2020 she requested a pass from INADI (National Institute against Discrimination, Xenophobia and Racism), an organization in which she could combine her state work with militancy.

After working for three years in the LGTB+ Ombudsman, last Tuesday he received a notification from INADI announcing

of the employment relationship.

The contract, the text states, "will be renewed until March 31, 2023 and

Albornoz says that the dismissal was

of Greta Pena, whom she questioned since her time as Undersecretary for Diversity within the Ministry of Women, Gender and Diversity.

Criticism climbs up to the ministerial leadership (since the

"

Fer Albornoz publicly denounced Greta Pena for her dismissal from the LGBT Ombudsman.

In no way is that worthy of democratic institutions.”

Criticism of Greta Pena

Questions to the management of diversity policies come from afar.

The creation of the Ministry of Women, Gender and Diversity had sown optimism, but the reality was harsh.

"The organizations had to go out to distribute food, hygiene items, everything,

Another critical point is

on diversity issues.

"The two main demands of the movement today are the National Anti-Discrimination Law and the Integral Trans Law. They say they are unfeasible. The Anti-Discrimination Law has already been

. How unfeasible are they?" he wonders.

The complaints were felt at the Pride March last November.

Two months later, however, Victoria Donda was ejected from INADI and Pena was promoted as her replacement.

"They also threatened to take away the space we had on Public TV [a special coverage of their own production on the March], they put a parallel scenario," says Albornoz.

"It was tremendous."

And he launches a comparison with the Buenos Aires Government: "

A compromise in jeopardy

Days after the non-renewal

of the contract was uncovered, INADI notified that it cut the agreement that it had with FALGBT since 2011.

The agreement put workers from the area in the sphere of LGBT+ Defenders.

To them, both the Institute and the Ministry, derived complaints whose responses required coordination

It was in force with five auditors: Pedro Mouratian (2011-2017), Javier Buján (2015-2017), Claudio Presman (2017-2019), Victoria Donda (2019-2022) and Greta Pena (2023).

From the FALGBT they assured that its members suffer "
