In the first election after the revolution, Fedaian received 10 of the votes.

Its just concluded sixth congress was held for the first time in the occupied territories, which meant that former guerrillas from Lebanon and Jordan were allowed entry by Israel.

Photographers Rebecka Bíró (Sweden Spain) and Victoria Montero (Argentina) have teamed up to create 'Guerrilleras' a documentary and photography project about the experience of women in the guerrilla during the Salvadoran Civil War (1980 1992).

Naturally, the 20 year hiatus since the last congress created a huge gap that was quickly filled by intifada veterans rather than old style guerrillas, who had dominated the movement since its establishment.

We seek to find answers to some questions How was the women's experience in the war, what was their role in the guerrilla, how did they struggle to survive and protect their families, how did it change the women's paradigm within a patriarchal structure in a traditionally male chauvinist society, what were the consequences and how do they continue their struggle today.
