Expert Historians.
By promoting and supporting the work of historians who identify as women or non-binary, we offer a concrete way to address explicit and implicit gender bias in public and professional perceptions of historical expertise.
Our searchable website makes it easier to identify and connect with historians who identify as women or non-binary working in a wide range of fields and professional settings.
Our social media campaign raises awareness of historians who identify as women or non-binary, their contributions to historical knowledge, and their roles as public intellectuals.
