What is being presented
The illustrated album «Historia del medio ambiente: una historia de mujeres» explores over three centuries of environmental history through the contributions of women who marked milestones in science, education, and ecological activism. The work, published as an illustrated album, highlights figures such as Wangari Maathai, whose concern for the environment evolved into a movement that empowered thousands of women with tools for change. It also features pioneers who revealed nature’s secrets, brought science closer to children, warned about early environmental impacts, and defined concepts like sustainability.
Who stars in the story
The book includes women from the 18th century to the present day who have contributed to the understanding and defense of the environment. Among them are environmentalists, scientists, educators, and activists who turned their concerns into social participation. The presentation at Biblioteca de la Dona will explore how these stories have influenced the current perception of ecology and the role of women in its development.
Access and requirements
Admission to the book presentation is free and open to all, until the capacity of Biblioteca de la Dona is reached. No prior registration is required, but it is recommended to check the availability of copies of the album for consultation or purchase during the event.
