Women's recognition in medicine and social causes

Overview

The Emma Rossi International Award held its fourth edition in San Marino, commemorating the 70th anniversary of the nation’s mandatory social security and public health system. The ceremony recognized seventeen candidates from various countries, including Italy, Argentina, Great Britain, Republic of the Congo, Gaza, and San Marino, for their work in medicine, scientific research, and humanitarian assistance. Francine Ntoumi was named the winner, while Aliaa Shamallak, a Palestinian humanitarian activist from Gaza, received a special merit mention.

In Italy, separate recognitions were awarded to women for social and professional contributions. In Portici, lawyer Rossana Colucci received the ‘Premio per la libertà e la dignità delle donne’ for her leadership in promoting social engagement and addressing gender violence. In Taranto, Olympic fencer Elisa Di Francisca was presented with the ‘donne, NON pupe’ award, using the occasion to advocate for independence and the rejection of toxic relationships.
