Thank you to everyone who attended the recent launch of 'Turning the Page: Reflections from the women of the Dunedin YWCA on its sunset era'. This was the final project of Working for Ōtepoti Women.

Since forming in 2019, our task has been to oversee the distribution of resources held by the Dunedin YWCA to Dunedin-based, women-led organisations focused on strengths-based initiatives. Funds were granted to

P.A.C.I.F.I.C.A (Dunedin)
Manu Scripts NZ
Women helping Ōtepoti

The remaining funds were used to create this publication, which covers the final decades of the Dunedin YWCA via the stories of the women involved with running the organisation. We'd like to thank all the women who agreed to take part in creating this collection.

A free electronic copy of this publication can be read and/or downloaded via the author's website at the following link

Hard copies have been sent to New Zealand libraries and archives.

Thanks again for all your support.
