The Women's Committee

The Women's Committee aims to encourage women to participate in all areas of economic and social history.

The Committee pursues this objective through its sponsorship of activities aimed to encourage women's interests and activities. In the recent past these have included an annual workshop and a dedicated session at the Annual Conference of the Economic History Society. The Committee has also encouraged and sponsored proposals to the publications committee for volumes related to the economic and social history of women.

The Committee makes an annual report to the Council of the Society and the organisers of the Annual Workshop make an independent report to the Treasurer and Council.
