Explore Australian women's history
The Australian Women's History Forum is developing this portal to help you find online resources. This portal is intended as a classroom resource for students and teachers, but it will also interest general users seeking information on women's history in Australia and beyond. You will find stories, images, documents and data.
Women's History Month is coming again soon!
Celebrate the 2011 theme - Kitchen Entrepreneurs: Women in the Business of Cooking
The history of women's professional involvement in the food business in Australia is a fascinating one. Find out more about the stories of Australian women cooks, writers, restauranteurs, nutritionists, food scientists and innovators. Check out our useful bibliography on the topic for more background reading.
Tell us about what WHM events you are planning for 2011 and find out what others are doing by consulting our website's online calendar.
We'll be adding featured women and their stories to our on-line Gallery early in 2011. If you'd like to to contribute a name or a story to next year's WHM write and let us know.
