| This week the workshop introduces the children to Marie Curie, Katherine Johnson, Mary Jackson, Dorothy Vaughan, Elisabeth Magie Philips and the Spanish Clara Campoamor | That the boys and girls discover great women who marked a before and after in the different areas in which they worked, thereby taking decisive steps towards gender equality, is the goal that the Department of Equality has set with the workshop 'Women in History', which this week offers its second installment.Framed in the program # Conecta2EnIgualdad and through her egalitarian children's channel, the actress Raquel Torres, returns to focus on women without whom the history of humanity would not be as we know it. In this second edition, the protagonists are Marie Curie, who discovered radium and polonium; Katherine Johnson, Mary Jackson and Dorothy Vaughan, three African-American mathematics without which the arrival of man on the moon would have been impossible; Elisabeth Magie Philips, forerunner of the game now known as Monopoly; and the Spanish Clara Campoamor, without whom the female vote in our country would continue to be a chimera.The purpose of these workshops is to help children to get closer to those great hidden figures that, in many cases, went unnoticed in the history books.
