This document outlines a brief history of the Italian branch of the International Federation of University Women, which was presented to the organization’s conference in Zurich during August 1950. The Italian group, named the Federazione Italiana Laureate e Docenti Istituti Superiori (FILDIS) was created in 1920 after an Italian delegate attended the International Federation’s first gathering. Like the International Federation, the goals of the Italian section in its early years were to build coalitions among women and to contribute to peaceful collaboration among women worldwide. By 1921, with the Milan and Rome sections of the group unified, the organizers turned to the adoption of a national constitution. The group, however, had a difficult relationship with Italy’s fascist government (1922-1943), particularly in protecting the ambitions of university women, and the group was forced to disband in 1935 because of its liberal politics. The group was reconstituted in 1944 after the military liberation of Rome during the Second World War. The remainder of the document outlines the group’s postwar reorganization and its various initiatives in national reconstruction, like awarding scholarships to young women wishing to study abroad.
