Soteria Aliberty (Greek: Σωτηρία Αλιμπέρτη; 1847–1929) was a Greek feminist and educator who founded the first Greek women's association, Ergani Athena (Greek: Εργάνη Αθηνά).

Aliberty founded a school for girls in Romania and wrote biographical sketches of notable Greek women for Women's Newspaper of Athens.[1] Similar activities were being carried out in Greece around the same time by the Ladies' Central Committee and Kalliroi Parren's Union of Greek Women.[2] In 1893, she returned to Athens where she founded Ergani Athena and became editor of the literary journal Pleiades.[3]
