The seeds of the Cuban women's suffrage movement were sown in the late 19th century by extraordinary women like Herminia Luján. Luján, a renowned educator and journalist, became a vocal advocate for women's rights. She established the Women's Club of Havana in 1897, providing a platform for women to engage in public discourse and demand their political equality.

The path towards suffrage for Cuban women was paved with challenges. Women were initially excluded from the 1901 Cuban Constitution, which granted suffrage to all men over 21. Undeterred, women's organizations like the National Council of Women worked tirelessly to advocate for their inclusion in the political sphere. One of the most prominent voices in this movement was Ana Betancourt, an independence activist who dedicated her life to the advancement of women's rights.
The Women's Congress of 1923
A pivotal moment in the Cuban women's suffrage movement came in 1923 with the First Women's Congress. Held in Havana, the congress brought together delegates from across the country to discuss the challenges faced by women and to formulate a plan of action for achieving their political equality. The congress issued a resolution demanding the right to vote for women and outlined strategies for achieving this goal.

After years of relentless advocacy, women's suffrage was finally incorporated into the Cuban Constitution in 1940. On January 3, 1943, Cuban women went to the polls for the first time, exercising their hard-fought right to participate in the political destiny of their nation. However, the road to full equality did not end there. Women continued to face barriers to their political participation, but their unwavering determination to overcome these obstacles serves as an inspiration for women's rights activists worldwide.
