Memorial por la diversidad de Chile, Memorial for diversity in Santiago General Cemetery, Chile

The Memorial por la Diversidad Daniel Zamudio Vera stands in the Cementerio General de Santiago, in Recoleta. It is a brutalist work: a concrete wall with rectangular monoliths of different sizes across its front, designed by the Chilean architects Jorge Morales, Leandro Capetto and Ignacio Rivas. A plaque honours Daniel Zamudio, and further plaques carry the names of other victims of homophobic and transphobic violence.

The memorial was inaugurated on January 20, 2014, and holds the remains of Daniel Zamudio, a young Chilean killed in 2012 because of his sexual orientation. The ceremony was led by his parents, Iván Zamudio and Jacqueline Vera, along with government spokesperson Cecilia Pérez Jara, Recoleta mayor Daniel Jadue and Movilh president Rolando Jiménez. It was the first monument in Chile to recognize sexual diversity and the second LGBT monument in Latin America, after Montevideo's Plaza de la Diversidad Sexual.

The memorial honors people harmed because of their identity, with plaques documenting cases since 1975. Visitors come to remember this history and show solidarity with those affected.

The memorial is located inside Santiago General Cemetery in the Recoleta neighborhood and is accessible year-round. Information plaques at the site explain the purpose and context of the memorial.

The memorial is the second LGBT monument in Latin America, after Montevideo's Plaza de la Diversidad Sexual in Uruguay. Its concrete wall carries rectangular monoliths of different sizes, and the remains of Daniel Zamudio rest here. Funding came from crowdfunding, a presidential grant under Sebastián Piñera, private companies and Chile's Jewish community.
