Administrative history
The Canadian Federation of University Women Peterborough Club (formerly the University Women's Club of Peterborough) adopted a new name and new constitution on 26 February 1991. The University Women's Club of Peterborough was founded in March 1937 as a member club of the Canadian Federation of University Women.
The CFUW Peterborough Club organizes social events, lectures, discussion groups, and other activities related to their primary goals to promote life-long learning, advocate for education for women and girls, promote human rights, encourage interest in public affairs, serve the community, and provide social and networking opportunities for women.
Graduate Women International (formerly the International Federation of University Women) was founded in Europe in the Spring of 1919. Delegates from University Women's Clubs in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Winnipeg and other Canadian cities met again in August 1919 to create the Canadian Federation of University Women. Mrs. Margaret Stovel McWilliams of the Winnipeg Club was the first President. The Canadian organization's aims are to promote the highest standards of education at all levels, to encourage participation in public affairs in the political, economic, and cultural fields, and to safeguard and improve the economic, legal, and professional status of women in Canada and the world. Graduate Women International aims to promote understanding among women of different cultures. There are Member Federations of GWI throughout the world and member clubs of CFUW in all parts of Canada.
