Expert Historians.
By promoting and supporting the work of women historians, 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 women historians working in a wide range of fields and professional settings.
Our social media campaign raises awareness of women historians, their contributions to historical knowledge, and their roles as public intellectuals.
