Women's Right To Vote

Brazil: Celina Guimarães Viana becomes the first Brazilian woman to vote

05/04/1928View on timeline

The State of Rio Grande do Norte in Brazil included in its local constitution, in 1927, a law that asserted gender equality regarding electoral rights. Celina Guimarães Viana was not the only woman to request her inclusion on the voters' list, but she was the first to have her petition approved, paving the way for women's rights in Brazil.
