From Bilbao to Manchester: the Basque child refugees of 1937 - Charles Jepson
In June 1937 a large group of Basque refugee children arrived in Manchester. They had fled their homes in Bilbao in order to escape the daily bombardment inflicted by Franco's fascist forces during the Spanish Civil War. They would spend the next two years living in a number of Basque Colonies in the Manchester region.

Schedule
Early modern globalization depended on the mobility and work of millions of workers who were crucial to production, transport, protection, and warfare. Bound by contract, slavery or otherwise, most of the labour relations through which sailors, soldiers, craftsmen, convicts and slaves were mobilized and employed contained elements in which withdrawal from the labour relation was a punishable offence. Though the lives of the working people were ordained by powerful trading companies and state structures, these workers often tried to pursue their own social and economic interests.
Mujer y Trabajo
El próximo día 6 de marzo se inaugura en el Edificio Rectorado de la Universidad de Málaga la exposición Mujer y trabajo en España 1875-2015, que podrá visitarse hasta el día 23 del mismo mes.
También el día 6 tendrá lugar, en el Hall del edificio Rectorado, a las 18:30 horas de la tarde, la charla Cambios sociales y trabajos femeninos, impartida por Rosa Capel, Catedrática de Historia de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
