This study aims to introduce proposals for the construction of women´s history, using documents of social conditions that have marked their lives in some way and have defined their contribution to the defense of honduran womens´ human rights. Some of their personal achievements will be shown to emphasize their actions.Although they have been relevant, these females have been hidden for their patriarchal record in history. Between the 20th and 21st Century, the study will narrate the cases of Mirta Kennedy and Maria Elena Mendez, in order to understand how they created their own spaces to become historic agents of change.
