Our new website

31/07/2007 10:59:14 PM

This is a new website portal, providing access to information and resources that enhance our understanding of women's role in the history of Australia.  

It is being developed by the Australian Women's History Forum (AWHF), building on the success of Women's History Month in Australia (WHM). This portal providesresources for annual WHM events in Australia and internationally; for Australia's annual National History Challenge; and for other activities promoting women's history. 

This portal is being built from resources developed for WHM each year and we welcome your ideas and comments on:

  • people in Who's Who;
  • key events for the Almanac
  • significant Historic places

Check this website for information in the lead-up to WHM each March - the theme is announced here first! You will also find resources for holding themed events, and a calendar of WHM events Australia-wide.
