Biographies

The Panhellenic Women's Movement was a broad-based, progressive women's organisation established in 1977 in order to assist and represent Australian women of Greek heritage.

The goals of the Panhellenic Women's Movement were as follows:

Organisations such as the Panhellenic Women's Movement were extremely active in their attempts to network with other women's organisations. The fact that we know of their existence is proof of this - they corresponded with the Union of Australian Women (UAW) quite regularly and their letters can be found in the UAW archives.

Evidence that they (and no doubt other migrant women's organisations) had an impact on the thinking of established women's organisations can also be found in this correspondence. A note in the UAW records, with the Panhellenic Women's Movement correspondence, notes the following:

'Our work is two-fold - on theone hand to become cognisant of the problems of migrant women and to assist them with regard to language, job opportunities, conditions etc. and by takin up the various issues contained in the Charter for Women Workers Rights, on the other hand, by extending solidarity to women in their homelands - for example, protesting at the closure of the Progressive Women's Organisation's office in Turkey, protesting about the atrocities against women in Chile and Uruguay.'
