Description

This electoral event held during the 1989 European Parliament election campaign, under the slogan “Social Europe with women”, symbolizes a key moment in the visibility of the role of women in the construction of European institutions. With the outstanding participation of Maria Comellas i Doñate, Carme Coll and Cristina Almeida, the event reflects the desire to transform the European space into an inclusive and egalitarian project. In a context of growing European integration, this photographic document bears witness to the struggle for female representation in politics and their active contribution to the definition of a social Europe. It is framed within the chronological (20th century), typological (photographic document), thematic (beats of Catalan society, politics and governance) and territorial (Barcelona) diversity, showing how Catalonia has been an active part in the social and political debates that have defined the contemporary European project.
