Creative Project Volunteer: Unearthing Suffragette Spirit - Volunteer

Overview

Creative Project Volunteer:
Unearthing the Suffragette Spirit. Unearth the lost stories of working-class suffragettes and other forgotten heroines. Join the Adas Army and help us rewrite history to inspire a new generation.

The project aims to unearth and celebrate forgotten heroines, shaping an inclusive historical narrative and highlighting the worldwide sisterhood of resistance. Volunteers will contribute to content that demonstrates that ordinary people can ignite change and that true power lies in redefining the limits placed upon us.

Join a collaborative effort to move beyond well-trodden narratives and raise visibility for diverse voices from the suffrage movement. Create articles, visual content, short films, and digital art that celebrate the voices of these heroines and support a movement that changed the world.

• Research: conduct in-depth research using academic databases, locate primary historical sources, and identify reputable information for inclusion in content.
• Writing & communication: translate complex historical and social information into clear, engaging content for articles and publications.
• Academic practices: familiarity with proper citation practices (footnotes, bibliographies), understanding of academic integrity, and an interest in having work published or cited.

• Strong research skills and the ability to identify credible sources.

• Experience in an academic environment and comfort with citations and integrity in reporting.

We aim to tell stories of women like Mary Macarthur, Annie Kenney, Doria Shafik, and Ada Lovelace, among others, exploring the worldwide breadth of the suffrage movement and its legacy. The project emphasizes a worldwide sisterhood of resistance and the contributions of women who built the movement.

Note:

This project is a mission to remember the women who built the movement and to highlight an inclusive history. The project includes contributions from diverse creators and seeks to inspire a new generation of writers, artists, filmmakers, and digital creators.
