Australian Women's History Forum's photostream

The Australian Women's History Forum (AWHF) was formed to enhance understanding of the role of women in the history of Australia.

The AWHF website provides resources for teachers, students and others keen to know more about women's history. A key activity of AWHF is the celebration each March of Women's History Month, originally an initiative of Helen Leonard and Mary Sexton

The AWHF website is a gateway to information about women who have shaped Australian history. Designed for both a national and an international audience, the AWHF website is a resource for teachers, students, media professionals, travellers, professional historians, family and local historians, writers and filmmakers, librarians, archivists, curators and collectors.

The AWHF's work is supported by a reference group of historians and educators who provide specialist advice on website content.
