Last Saturday, September 21, from Wikisphere and in coordination with the Subdirectorate-General for State Archives (@archivosest) of the Ministry of Culture of the Government of Spain (@culturagob) we dedicate a day to make visible in Wikipedia women who researched at the State Archives between 1900 and 1970 through the creation and translation of different articles in the General Archive of the Indies, in Seville.

This activity is linked to the project Women Investigators in the State Archives (1900-1970): a pioneering initiative in Spanish archival, focused on highlighting the role of women in historical research. It brings together the efforts of seven centers of the Subdirectorate General of State Archives, creating a microsite in the Portal de Archivos Españoles (PARES). This project provides access to documents that reveal the female contribution in history and science, and continues to expand, serving as a valuable resource and tribute to women researchers.
