On Wednesday, March 17, the leader Adriana Bravo was appointed as third vice president of Boca to replace the late Roberto Digón and thus became the first woman to hold a management position in the almost 117-year history of the xeneixe institution.
The 40-year-old leader, who is also a graphic designer and event organizer, has been part of the Juntos por Boca group since 2015, led by Jorge Ameal. She was a substitute member candidate in the elections of that year and in those of 2019.
Until now, Bravo was in charge of the Department of Inclusion and Equality of Boca, from where he promoted the club’s women’s football and from where he promoted the approval of the protocol in situations of gender-based violence, which the organizations and groups of fans had been demanding. feminists. Another of the activities that she recently carried out in the department was a tribute to Elba Selva, former player of the national team and member of the team that played in the 1971 World Cup in Mexico.
Adriana Bravo is today one of the few women who holds managerial positions in the first division clubs of Argentine soccer. Although the Sports Law (27,202) sanctioned in 2015, in article 20 bis, makes explicit that there must be at least a 20 percent female quota in confederations, federations and non-profit civil associations (clubs) but, since they are not regulated, the law is not enforced. Far from 20%, the average female representation on the Board of Directors is close to 6%.
