What's the state of women's history in 2025?

  • What is new research revealing about women's lives in the past? Does all women's history have to be feminist?

To mark International Women's Day, Ellie Cawthorne speaks to three expert historians – Sarah Richardson, Hannah Skoda and Hannah Cusworth – to get their thoughts on the biggest trends and challenges in the field of women's history at the moment.
