Augusta Aasen, née Paasche (19 May 1878 – 3 August 1920) was a Norwegian politician for the Labour Party.

She was born in Osen as a daughter of Fredrik Christian Paasche and Pauline Sivertsdatter Vaagen.[1] Together with book printer Edolf Aasen (1877–1969), she had a son Arne Paasche Aasen, a well-known poet.[2][3]

She hailed from Steinkjer, and was a member of Trondhjem city council from 1908 to 1911.[4] She was the first female council member in Norway's third largest city.[1] She then moved to Kristiania and was a secretary in Norges Socialdemokratiske Ungdomsforbund from 1912 to 1914. She also worked in the newspaper Direkte Aktion.[4]

Politically, she was a board member of Kristiania Labour Party,[4] and a deputy board member of the central board.[5] In 1920, she was the only female Norwegian delegate to the Second Comintern Congress.[6] Here she died at the airport when she was hit by an airplane propeller.[5] She was buried in the Kremlin Wall Necropolis (Mass Grave No. 9) as the only Norwegian woman buried there.[1]
