Clementina Batalla (1894–1987) was a Mexican lawyer, teacher and women's rights activist.

At age 20, Batalla was one of the first female law students in Mexico.[1] In 1920, she was admitted as a lawyer in the National School of Jurisprudence, which made her the second lawyer received in her alma mater.[2] Batalla founded the Union of Mexican Women, which in 1964 held its first Annual Congress.[3]
