La Siempreviva

La Siempreviva, was a women's organization in Mexico, founded in 1870. It was the first women's rights organization in Mexico, and has been referred to as the start of the Mexican women's movement. La Siempreviva was also the name of the school and the publication of the organization.

The organization was founded by the educator and pioneer feminist Rita Cetina Gutiérrez in Yucatán in 1870.

The organization's purpose was to work for higher education for girls within a secular educational system. At this time period, girls in Mexico was rarely given schooling above elementary education, and schools above that education level were normally managed by the Catholic church.

The organization La Siempreviva published its own newspaper with the same name.

The La Siempreviva founded its own school for girls, which became the first secular school in Mexico to provide secondary education for women, and which was later to become the Instituto Literario de Ninas.
