Through our activities the foundation wishes to focus attention on the participation of women in music, past and present. The foundation also maintains contact with women's organizations in the Netherlands and in other countries, and when requested, provides information both to individuals and to institutions. The Foundation has built up a centre for documentation both to stimulate research on women and music and for our own use.
All contributions are very welcome.
