Since the end of the Civil War in 1939 and well into the democratic period in the 90s, it is estimated that thousand of newborns were taken from their mothers and "adopted" by families loyal to the Francoist regime.
Recently a law proposal was admitted in congres. It aims to provide resources and reparations to the families affected. To tell us about this law and the historical context in which this took place, we spoke with Arantxa Borrachero Mendívil, researcher and director of the project "Mujer y memoria" (Women and memory).
