List: Specialists on Women and Non-binary philosophers

NKNiF has worked out a ‘specia-list’ with an overview of experienced people in Denmark, who work with and are knowledgeable about women and non-binary philosophers, living and historical. The purpose of this list is to make it easier for interested students, researchers, journalists and others to find a short cut to women and non-binary philosophers. Among the specialists are PhD-students, researchers and teachers, who can be contacted concerning literary materials and information about the various philosophers.
