Women played a role in the Nicaraguan Revolution. Those who joined the Sandinista movement in the revolutionary Nicaragua essentially fought a battle: to secure national freedom from the Somoza dictatorship and to advance gender equality.[1]
There was an emergence of women as active participants and leaders. Many women joined the ranks of the Sandinistas as the armed struggle in Nicaragua started in 1967.[1]
Women also joined the Contras movement. Women from both the Sandinistas and Contras worked together to generate reform in Nicaragua.[2]
