Story of Clara Campoamor
Clara Campoamor Rodríguez was born in Madrid in 1888 and died in Lausanne (Switzerland) in 1972. She was a Spanish writer, politician and lawyer who fought for women's rights.
Campoamor soon had to contribute to the family economy. At only ten years old, after the death of his father, he had to leave school and work. She began to become interested in politics and in 1931 she was elected deputy. Clara Campoamor worked to ensure that there was no discrimination between the sexes. Thanks to her firm conviction and defense of women's suffrage in Spain, women have been able to vote freely since 1933.
