Digitisation of documents from the founding of the Student Federation of Peru 1920-1921 (EAP1624)

Aims and objectives

This project aims to recover and digitise valuable material from the founding of the Federación de Estudiantes del Perú. This collection was initially in the custody of Juan Francisco Valega, until it was subsequently handed over to Javier Mariátegui, thus becoming part of the José Carlos Mariátegui Archive. This material, which dates from 1920 and 1921, is composed of the administrative documentation that led to the organisation of the First Congress of Students of Peru, held in the city Cusco. It provides important historical and cultural information about the organisation of the Peruvian student movement at the beginning of the 20th century.
