About us

Since 1935, Atria has been collecting and regulating resources on the history of women, gender relations, women’s movements, and gender equality. The library and databases provide a wide (inter)national context to this. Together, they form a cohesive whole, with each part reinforcing, enriching, and deepening the others.  

 

Through research in national and international contexts, Atria stimulates knowledge development and contributes to the equality of women in all their diversity. The care for the specific interaction between different groups within society makes our collection of invaluable worth.
