The exhibition shows ancient and historical books and documents to tell the story of the evolution of women's role in medicine and the health professions. It will be an opportunity to learn about figures of female doctors, nurses and midwives whose works and actions have made significant contributions to the growth of these professions.
The exhibition will be accompanied by the reading of excerpts that will contextualize the development of the female figure in the medical and health professions over time.
The initiative is part of the "off" calendar of events of the 6th edition of the Festival "L'eredità delle donne"
