Ángela Auad (born February 29 of 1945 in Jujuy, Argentina; died December 17 or 18, 1977) was an Argentine social activist. A member of the Marxist–Leninist Communist Party (Partido Comunista Marxista Leninista), she worked with the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo (Madres de Plaza de Mayo) to locate those who "disappeared" during the Dirty War. Because of her activism, she was kidnapped, tortured and murdered.
Auad was arrested when she was a college student in Tucumán when she was a college student; she was released in mid-1975. In 1976, her husband Robert was imprisoned in Chaco Province. Because of this, Auad came into contact with the Relatives of Those Disappeared and Detained for Political Reasons (Familiares de Desaparecidos y Detenidos por Razones Políticas) and the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo.
