| Summary: | Teresa Mattei, a prominent figure in the Italian historical and political landscape of the 20th century, is best known for her involvement in the Resistance as a partisan and her subsequent political activity, first in the Constituent Assembly and then in Parliament. Her life and thought represent an example of determination, engagement for justice and equal rights, and are intertwined with the broader history of Italy. Teresa Mattei was also actively committed to children’s rights and in the field of education. From the 1960s, she was the promoter and animator of the project ‘Il cinema fatto dai bambini’ (‘Cinema made by children’) of the Monte Olimpino cooperative, a unique experience in Italy that combines pedagogy and cinema, offering children the opportunity to express themselves freely through the medium of film. Mattei later founded the League for Children’s Right to Communication and developed some projects dedicated to children and their relationship with communication. |
