In 2017, we brought together 20 female artists from different generations for a three-day art camp to create portraits of pioneering Bangladeshi women. This initiative laid the foundation for our future work.
HerStories: The Adventures of Supergirls was published in English and Bangla in 2018, featuring illustrated biographies that trace the history of Bengal through the lives of 20 remarkable women. A second volume followed in 2019.
The HerStory Foundation launched a year-long reading fellowship in September 2019, where “Incredible Fellows” from Dhaka University and Independent University of Bangladesh were placed in underserved classrooms to read-out-loud from HerStories: The Adventures of Supergirls and discuss gender, future thinking, and life with the students.
