Teresa Noce
Teresa Noce (29 July 1900 – 22 January 1980) was an Italian labor leader, activist, journalist and feminist. She served as a parliamentary deputy and advocated broad social legislation benefiting mothers. Biography Teresa Noce was born in Turin, Italy on 29 July 1900 to an unmarried, working-class mother. She started working as a turner in the local Fiat Brevetti factory at the age of ten. By the age of 12, she was involved in the workers' union and joined demonstrations. As a journalist she wrote for ''Il Grido del Popolo'' (''The People's Cry'') and ''Ordine Nuove'' from 1914 to 1917. She protested when Italy entered World War I in 1915 and joined the Young Socialist movement in 1919.

Chamber Of Deputies (Italy)
The Chamber of Deputies ( it, Camera dei deputati) is the lower house of the bicameral Italian Parliament (the other being the Senate of the Republic). The two houses together form a perfect bicameral system, meaning they perform identical functions, but do so separately. The Chamber of Deputies has 400 seats, of which 392 will be elected from Italian constituencies, and 8 from Italian citizens living abroad. Deputies are styled ''The Honourable'' (Italian: ''Onorevole'') and meet at Palazzo Montecitorio. Location The seat of the Chamber of Deputies is the ''Palazzo Montecitorio'', where it has met since 1871, shortly after the capital of the Kingdom of Italy was moved to Rome at the successful conclusion of the Italian unification ''Risorgimento'' movement. Previously, the seat of the Chamber of Deputies of the Kingdom of Italy had been briefly at the ''Palazzo Carignano'' in Turin (1861–1865) and the ''Palazzo Vecchio'' in Florence (1865–1871). Under the Fascist regime o ...

Italian Federation Of Textile Workers
The Italian Federation of Textile Workers ( it, Federazione Italiana Operai Tessili, FIOT) was a trade union representing workers in textile manufacturing and processing in Italy. The union was founded on 28 April 1901, when a wide variety of local trade unions formed the National Federation of the Textile Arts. It launched a journal, ''The Textile Arts'', and its membership increased from 4,000 at foundation, to 20,000 by the end of the year. It launched an unsuccessful campaign for a maximum 10 hour working day. Its campaign to limit child labour was more successful, achieving a ban on under-12s in 1902, and under-14s in 1905. It also achieved statutory maternity leave. In 1904, the union renamed itself as the Italian Confederation of Textile Arts, and soon affiliated to the new General Confederation of Labour. It achieved little in the remainder of the decade, heavily divided between reformists and revolutionary syndicalists. In 1911, it became the Italian Federation o ...

Italian Feminists
Feminism in Italy originated during the Italian renaissance period, beginning in the late 13th century. Italian writers such as Christine de Pizan, Moderata Fonte, Lucrezia Marinella, and others developed the theoretical ideas behind gender equality. In contrast to feminist movements in France and United Kingdom, early women's rights advocates in Italy emphasized women's education and improvement in social conditions. Italian feminism suffered a setback under the fascist government of Benito Mussolini in the first half of the twentieth century, with fascist ideology dictating procreation as a woman's duty. In the post-war period, feminist movements surged, with public activism over issues such as divorce and abortion during the 1970s. Italian feminism has become more prominent recently, particularly during the administration of former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, with a focus on opposing objectification of women in national television shows and politics.

Lina Fibbi
Giulietta Fibbi (4 August 1920 – 21 January 2018) was an Italian trade union leader, communist politician and anti-fascist activist. Born in Fiesole in Italy, Fibbi grew up in Lyon, where her socialist father fled to avoid persecution by the fascist government. When she was 15, she began working in a textile mill, and two years later, she became the leader of the Union of French Girls. During World War II, Fibbi was imprisoned in the Rieucros Camp, where she worked closely with Teresa Noce to organise underground education in politics and the Italian language. She was returned to Italy in 1941 and immediately arrested but was released after six months, due to a lack of evidence against her. She was placed under surveillance for two years, and when this ended, she began working for the illegal Italian Communist Party (PCI). She joined the secretariat of the Garibaldi Brigades, and was one of the five founders of the Women's Defense Groups. After the war, Fibbi began worki ...
