Biography

Larguèche was born in 1953 in Monastir, Tunisia.[1]

She joined the Tunisian Communist Party during a period when it was banned in the country, although the ban was lifted in 1981.[2] She also became an activist with the Tunisian Association of Democratic Women and the Association of Tunisian Women for Research and Development.[3]

Larguèche attended Tunis University, graduating in 1986 with a doctoral degree. She then became a professor of early modern history at Manouba University.[4]

Her activism extended to her work as an academic. In the early 1990s, with the support of some of her colleagues, she launched and developed the study of women's history at Manouba University.[5] Despite some resistance, the subject was introduced to the university's Department of Letters, Arts, and Humanities.

She has served on the scientific councils of Tunis University, Manouba University, the Laboratory of Regions and Heritage Resources of Tunisia, and the American Institute for Maghrib Studies. She also oversees the "Gender, Women, Society, and Culture" research team.[6]

From 2011 to 2013, she served as director-general of the (CREDIF). After being fired by Minister for Women's Affairs Sihem Badi and replaced with Rachida Tlili Sellaouti, she returned to the director-general role from 2016 to 2018.[7] [8]

She is married to the historian Abdelhamid Larguèche, with whom she has frequently collaborated on research, particularly on Tunisia's marginalized populations including prostitutes, Jews, Black Tunisians, and the poor.[9] [10]
