Clara Boscaglia

Clara Boscaglia (1930 – 22 July 1990) was a Sammarinese politician. One of the first women to be elected to the Grand and General Council, she later became the first in San Marino to serve as a government minister.

By profession, Boscaglia was a teacher of Greek and Latin at the high school level. A member of the Sammarinese Christian Democratic Party (SCDP), she was among the founding members of the Confederazione generale democratica dei lavoratori sammarinesi in 1957; she was the parliamentary group leader and political secretary of the SCDP. When in 1973 women earned the right to stand for election in San Marino, she became one of the first four women to be elected to the Grand and General Council in 1974, alongside Anna Maria Casali, Marina Busignani Reffi and Fausta Morganti, although Reffi ultimately declined to take her seat. In 2010 the twentieth anniversary of her death was observed with a commemorative program discussing her legacy.
