Colette Durruti Morin (1931–2025) was a Spanish-French businesswoman and activist. The daughter of the Spanish anarchist Buenaventura Durruti and the French anarchist Émilienne Morin, she grew up in poverty and constantly moving. After her father was killed in action in the Spanish Civil War, her mother took her to France, where she lived for the rest of her life. She involved herself in campaigns to preserve the historical memory of her father and later moved to Brittany. There she ran a dairy business, raised her family and provided primary sources about her father to historians until she retired to Northern Catalonia.
