Pioneers. The Women Who Made Europe

Eleven biographies recount the desire for a Union under the banner of peace, rights, social justice and gender equality, capable of transcending national barriers and short-sighted visions. The women on this roll have been revolutionaries, lawyers, civil servants, trade unionists and teachers. Some were protagonists of great founding moments, others of tenacious daily work. A journey through the 20th century to lead us to the richness, but also the vulnerability of today’s Europe. An idea still under construction, which can draw great nourishment from the words and actions of these extraordinary women.
