The Advocate, on her own initiative or through agreements of collaboration, shall draft and enforce a plan to establish regional, district or municipal offices, in order to expedite and promote the access of women to the Office so as to comply with the purposes of this chapter.

In order to develop and implement said plan during the first year after the Office has been established, the Advocate shall promote the execution of collaborative agreements at government and private levels, including, but without it being understood as a limitation, agreements with the municipal governments, entities and corporations and with nongovernmental entities and organizations identified with women’s rights, when these agreements make feasible the exercise of her responsibilities without impairing her autonomy.
