On October 1, 2024, a climate scientist and former Mexico City mayor was sworn in as her country's president, becoming the first woman ever to hold the office.
Mexico is correct — Claudia Sheinbaum was sworn in as its president on October 1, 2024, becoming the first woman to hold the office in the roughly two centuries since Mexico's independence from Spain. A climate scientist and former mayor of Mexico City, she previously shared recognition for contributing to international climate change research.
Brazil and Colombia have each had significant political milestones of their own, but neither inaugurated a first female president on this date — this specific event, a scientist-turned-mayor becoming her nation's first woman president, belongs to Mexico.
Sheinbaum succeeded Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, her ally from the same Morena political party, marking a continuation of that party's platform even as she broke new ground as the country's first female head of state.
