The resolution issued by the National Institute for Transparency (INAI) highlights that access to public information is essential for the effective guarantee of human rights. By instructing the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) to disclose data on requests filed by orphaned girls, boys, and adolescents who have lost a parent to femicide, the agency transforms the right to know into a tool for improving health guidelines and building social justice for vulnerable groups. The case illustrates the importance of institutions conducting thorough and reasonable searches, rejecting claims of non-existent information without a deep analysis. This requirement ensures that transparency is not merely a formal procedure, but a real mechanism for addressing inequalities and complying with the national protocol for comprehensive care, prioritizing the restoration of rights in contexts of violence. This decision is significant for open data initiatives, as it demonstrates how the publication and access to specific government data enable the auditing of public policy effectiveness. By mandating the disaggregation and sharing of information on the care provided to indirect victims, it fosters accountability and continuous improvement of services, ensuring that data not only exist but are actively used to protect children and adolescents at risk.
