From Carolina Beatriz Ângelo casting the first female vote in Portugal to the resilience of the Três Marias, women’s movements have shaped Portugal's path to equality. Despite barriers imposed by regimes and restrictive laws, women fought for equal pay, political participation, and social freedoms, inspiring generations to come. Yet today, challenges persist. The far-right’s growing influence reminds us of the need to defend and expand the rights hard-won by past generations. 🌍 #SolRem #SolRemProject #WomensRights #WomensMovements

Lisbon’s 1962 student uprising stands as a powerful testament to the role of youth in the fight for freedom. From the 'academic crisis' to the radical activism of the late '60s, students united against the Estado Novo regime, demanding justice, reform, and an end to colonial wars. The dedication of Portugal’s youth transformed from a call for university reform into a bold stance against authoritarianism. ✊📚 #SolRem #SolRemProject #StudentRepression

What role did corporatism play in shaping Estado Novo? In Portugal, the Estado Novo's corporatist system was established by the 1933 Constitution. By 1974, about 2,700 organisations, including Casas do Povo and Casas dos Pescadores, were created. This system was vital for the regime’s stability and revealed the complex relationship between state power and societal interests. #SolRem #SolRemProject #Corporatism

Ever heard about the history of the Portuguese Communist Party (PCP)? From its founding in 1921 to its role in the Carnation Revolution of 1974, the PCP has been a voice for the working class and a force against oppression. Through decades of dictatorship, the fight for freedom and social justice has defined this movement. Today, the PCP stands strong, rooted in its principles yet adapting to a changing world. #SolRem #SolRemProject #PCP

Have you heard the courageous story of Aristides de Sousa Mendes? During World War II, this Portuguese diplomat defied his government’s orders and issued 30,000 visas to help refugees and Jews escape Nazi persecution. Risking his career and personal safety, Aristides' remarkable bravery allowed thousands to flee the horrors of the Holocaust. Honored as one of the ‘Righteous Among the Nations’ at Yad Vashem, his story is a powerful reminder of how individual actions can stand up to injustice. #SolRem #SolRemProject #AristidesdeSousaMendes
