Forging Democracy: Discover the Argentine Fight for Human Rights

About this experience

If there’s one thing that defined the 20th century in Argentina, it’s the lack of Democracy. In this tour we’ll explore the reasons for Argentina’s Dictatorship and learn about the immense fight led by the Mothers of May Square and other Human Rights organizations to finally restore Democracy in 1983.

In this tour, you’ll walk the area of the Presidential Palace and the Military buildings with a historian and activist, learning how even 40 years into Democracy, the fight to sustain this political system still goes on.
