women's rights activist who lived from 1859 to 1934. She was
born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and was the first woman to earn
a medical degree in the country.

As a young girl, Cecilia was interested in medicine and science.

However, at the time, women were not allowed to attend medical
school. Despite this, she pursued her passion and studied
anatomy and medicine with private tutors.

Eventually, Cecilia was able to attend medical school in

Switzerland and became a qualified physician in 1889. When she
returned to Argentina, she established the first nursing school in
the country and worked to improve healthcare for women and
children.

In addition to her work in medicine, Cecilia was also a strong

advocate for women's rights. She believed that women should
have equal access to education and job opportunities, and she
worked tirelessly to promote these values throughout her life.

Cecilia Grierson's dedication to healthcare and women's rights

has made her a role model for people around the world. Her
legacy serves as a reminder that with determination and hard
work, anyone can achieve their dreams and make a positive
impact on society.
Julieta Lanteri was a trailblazing Argentine suffragist and
the first woman to vote in the country. She was born in
Italy in 1873 and immigrated to Argentina with her family
when she was a child.
Julieta was a gifted student and earned a degree in
philosophy and literature from the National University of La
Plata. She later became interested in medicine and
attended medical school in Switzerland.
When she returned to Argentina, Julieta became involved
in the women's suffrage movement and worked to secure
voting rights for women. She organized rallies and
protests, and even went on a hunger strike to draw
attention to the cause.
In 1911, Julieta became the first woman to graduate from
a university in Argentina with a degree in medicine.
Despite this achievement, she was still not allowed to
vote. She continued to fight for women's suffrage and in
1919, she was finally granted the right to vote in the
municipal elections of Buenos Aires.
María Magdalena Dámasa Güemes de Tejada, also known as
Macacha Güemes, was an Argentine revolutionary who played a
crucial role in the country's fight for independence from Spanish
colonial rule. She was born in 1781 in Salta, Argentina.

As a member of a rich family, Macacha received an excellent

education and became deeply committed to the cause of
Argentine independence. She used her wealth and social status
to support the revolution, providing financial aid and supplies to
the fighters.

During the war, Macacha's home served as a refuge for wounded

soldiers and a center for revolutionary activities. She also played
an important role in intelligence gathering and communication
with other revolutionaries. After the war, Macacha continued to
support the cause of Argentine independence. She was a vocal
advocate for the rights of indigenous people and fought against
the exploitation of workers and peasants.

Despite her significant contributions to the fight for independence,

Macacha's role in history has often been overlooked. However, in
recent years, there has been a renewed interest in her life and
legacy, and she is now celebrated as a national hero in Argentina.

María Magdalena Dámasa Güemes de Tejada, or Macacha

Güemes, serves as an inspiration for her courage, dedication, and
commitment to social justice. Her legacy reminds us of the
important role that women have played in shaping history and the
power of individual action to create change.
Estela de Carlotto is an Argentine human rights activist and the
president of the Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo, an
organization dedicated to finding the children who were stolen
during Argentina's "Dirty War" and reuniting them with their
families. She was born in 1930 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Estela's daughter, Laura Carlotto, was a student activist who was

kidnapped by the military dictatorship in 1977 and was never seen
again. After her daughter's disappearance, Estela became a
prominent advocate for human rights and joined the
Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo.

For decades, Estela and the Grandmothers worked tirelessly to

locate the stolen children and reunite them with their families.
Their efforts have led to the identification of over 100 of these
children, and Estela herself was reunited with her grandson in
2014, 36 years after he was taken from her daughter.

Estela has received numerous awards for her work, including the
United Nations Prize in the Field of Human Rights in 2018. Her
activism serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of
fighting for justice and human rights, even in the face of adversity.

Estela de Carlotto's legacy is one of resilience, hope, and the

power of collective action to create change. Her story inspires us
to take action against injustice and to stand up for what is right,
even when it is difficult.
