Isabel Pinto de Vidal (Montevideo, December 13, 1885 – 1969) was a Uruguayan feminist lawyer and politician, and a member of the Colorado Party.[1] Pinto de Vidal was a founding member of the National Women's Council of Uruguay(Consejo Nacional de Mujeres del Uruguay, CONAMU), a branch of the International Council of Women in Uruguay.[2] Her activism alongside the works of feminists such as Paulina Luisi and Francisca Beretervide is credited for achieving women's rights in Uruguay.[3]
After the women's suffrage in Uruguay, the Batllist sector of the Colorado Party, in which Pinto de Vidal was active, entered the electoral campaign of 1942. For the first time in Uruguayan history, women were elected to parliament, Sofía Álvarez Vignoli and Pinto de Vidal were the first senators.[4] In addition, Pinto de Vidal was the first woman to preside over the General Assembly.[5][6]
As one of the nine women to be named delegates and the only female delegate from Uruguay to the United Nations Conference on International Organization (UNCIO) in 1945,[7] Pinto de Vidal worked to ensure women's rights were referenced throughout early documents and legal frameworks. She introduced an amendment that “representation and participation in the organs of the Organization shall be open to both men and women under the same conditions.”[8] Pinto de Vidal's amendment was eventually included as Article 8 of the United Nations Charter.[9][10]
