Carmen Magallón (2017).

Carmen Magallón-Portolés is a PhD, a physicist, and Master in Philosophy of Science by University of Zaragoza, Spain, committed with the advancement of women through researching their contributions to two important fields: science and peace.[1][2] Her thinking is an important reference in the Spanish studies of Women in Science[3] and Feminist Pacifism. Among her works in this field: Mujeres en pie de paz, Madrid, Siglo XXI, 2006[4] and Contar en el mundo. Una mirada sobre las relaciones internacionales desde las vidas de las mujeres, Madrid, Horas y horas, 2012.[5]

In 2011 she was elected President of WILPF Spain, the Spanish section of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom.[6] In September 2013, the Martin Luther King Institute of the Polytechnic University of Nicaragua (UPOLI), in the celebration of its 20th anniversary awarded her the 'Order of Peace Martin Luther King': "for her outstanding contribution to the development of women's rights, the feminist thought and the construction of a culture of peace in the world". At the ceremony, Dr. Magallón presented the keynote: "Universalize female legacies, build a civilizatory rationality: steps towards a culture of peace". The Instituto Martin Luther King (IMLK) is part of the UPOLI, a Nicaraguan university located in Managua. Its main objective is to build a culture of peace.[7]

In March 2022 she was amongst 151 international feminists signing Feminist Resistance Against War: A Manifesto, in solidarity with the Russian Feminist Anti-War Resistance.[8][n. 1]

Magallón's writings contribute to the recovery of the history of women, their experiences and their knowledge, as a prerequisite for building gender equality. While much of the literature on women in science comes from the English-speaking world, Magallón has focused particular attention on Spanish women scientists. Most of her works are included in the Dialnet database Dialnet at University of La Rioja, Spain.[12]
