Find out more about Women's History Month on Europeana 

Since 2016, Europeana has celebrated Women’s History Month by highlighting the stories of important women in history, creating and promoting editorial to improve the representation of women on its website. An example of this is a landmark exhibition Pioneers: Trailblazing women in the arts and sciences, which features the lives of eight remarkable women from Europe.

Europeana published a series of interviews featuring key female influencers in culture and tech and women leading AI research in the cultural heritage sector.

This year, Europeana shares stories of women from both history and the present day by highlighting Afro-European Women writers, Portugal's first female journalist Virgínia Quaresma, and more.
