Description

The autobiography of Moisès Broggi, written in 1991, is the vital testimony of a doctor and humanist who experienced the great events of the 20th century from the trenches of medicine and ethical commitment. From the Civil War to his participation with the International Brigades and his medical work at the Hospital Clínic de Barcelona, ​​Broggi represents a generation that made science and solidarity a form of resistance. The document, preserved in the National Archives of Catalonia, brings us closer to a personal trajectory that becomes collective memory, and connects Catalonia with the universal values ​​of human dignity, peace and international cooperation. It is a key piece to understanding how an individual’s biography can reflect the heartbeat of a society and its role in building a fairer and more united Europe.
