Maria Svolou
Maria Svolou (Μαρία Σβώλου, ''née'' Desypri; 1892 – 1976) was a Greek feminist and socialist leader.
Maria Desypri was born around 1892 in Athens to George Desypros and his wife. Maria was one of four daughters and lived for two years in Piraeus. She moved with her family to Larissa in her youth when her father was appointed director of a branch of the Greek National Bank. There she studied at the Arsakeion School of Larissa, graduating around 1907. Following the death of her father in 1915, the family returned to Athens. She received a certificate in French Studies in 1916 and a license for teaching French from the Ecclesiastical and Public Education Ministries in 1919.
Svolou was active in the women's movement of Greece from a young age. She married law professor Alexandros Svolos in 1923. As secretary of the League for Women's Rights she advocated for the creation of night schools for women who worked and fought against prostitution. She campaigned and wrote on behalf of equality for the women of Greece. She was inspector of labor for the Ministry of Economics and used her position there to draw attention the poor working and housing conditions of impoverished working women.
Svolou was involved in the anti-fascist politics from 1911 to 1936 and supported the peace movement. She was editor of the magazine ''Woman's Struggle'' and was exiled from Greece from 1936 to 1940 with her husband by dictator Ioannis Metaxas. Svolou was a leader of the liberal feminist movement but believed that gender equality could only be attained after fundamental societal change. She returned to Greece in 1940 and volunteered in the Greek-Albanian War as a nurse. She later organised meals with the Red Cross for children during World War II and the German occupation. Svolou joined the resistance movement and was a member of the National Council for a year. Svolou sympathised with the Communists and was exiled again in 1948. Following her return she ran for the Parliament as a member of the Greek Leftist Party. She was elected twice and was a member of the party's Central Committee.〔
