Sources and Resources for Women's History

We work hard to place the women that we write about in their historical context. It is important to understand the social, cultural and legal frameworks in which they lived, made decisions and conducted their lives. We are starting to build up some resources that we hope will help as you tell the stories of your own forgotten women. We do not receive any benefits or inducements in return for listing resources on these pages and the inclusion of a particular resource, link or product should not be taken as an endorsement. We have also uploaded stories, videos and podcasts for International Women's Day and International Day of the Girl. These include biographies, social history and background information about women's lives. Please do contact us with suggestions for additions. Click on the blocks below for more information.
