For most modern times, historical recounts were mainly by and about men, leaving many milestones of trailblazing women unrecorded and lost in history, without any visual proof and the recognition they deserve in society. That's part of the reason why women's achievements have gone unrecorded and lost throughout history. This is an especially prevalent issue in Ecuador, where underrepresentation is one of the many reasons why we're still many years away from closing the gender gap. So, we decided to honor and bring into the spotlight milestones achieved by trailblazing Ecuadorian women in the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. With the help of historians, we gathered information from thousands of historical documents to feed an artificial intelligence. During Women's Month, we portrayed never-seen-before pivotal stories in Ecuadorian history to inspire a new generation of women to change history.
