About the project

Part of the project Gendered power relations in agriculture: how rural women are facing gender inequality and struggling for more just and sustainable agri-food systems – the case of Portugal, «Mulheres, Terra e Revolução» recovers these memories and restores centrality to the women who fought for land, for their rights and for more dignified lives, playing decisive roles in the revolutionary process.

The documentary brings together testimonies from activists, cooperative members and journalists, revealing paths of resistance, emancipation and the building of popular power at a time when speaking out and taking action was, for many women, a profoundly revolutionary act. The book complements this perspective, analysing continuities, ruptures and the formation of female political identities in the rural world — reminding us that understanding the Revolution implies fully recognising the contribution of these women.
