Biography

Julia Batino (1914, Bitola– 1942, Jasenovac concentration camp, Croatia) was a Macedonian Jewish antifascist and women's rights activist. She was made President of the Bitola WIZO (Croatian ZICO Ženska Internacionalna Cionisticka Organizacija Women's International Zionist Organisation) in 1934, an organization which was actively involved in the progressive women's movement in Yugoslavia.

Batino directed her energies towards the emancipation of Jewish women, particularly young women.

Batino's connections to the Jewish community in Belgrade enabled her to send a certain number of Jewish girls from Bitola to work or study in Belgrade each year, among them Haim Estreya Ovadya, among the first women to join the Partisans in 1941.
