Together with two colleagues – Alison Jasper and Rajalakshmi Nadadur Kannan – I am embarking upon a new research project, called Scottish Women On A Mission (or SWOAM). We will be studying the work of Scottish women who went overseas as missionaries in the years 1918-48.
There is a small website now available, and this morning I posted a blog outlining some of our aims and objectives. Do take a look, and follow our work there (we’re on Twitter and Facebook, and you can also follow us by subscribing to the website).
