Sažetak
An effort was made through research and available data to give an overview of women«s associations active in Koprivnica in the period from 1878 to 1943. It was established that a total of twelve associations were active in the Koprivnica region. The emphasis in carrying out the research was on trying to ascertain the sphere of activity of the associations wherein it was established that they included charity, humanitarian, educational, cultural and social activity. The activities the associations carried out were directed to collecting funds and other forms of assistance for the impoverished and the victims of various natural disasters and social ills. We consider the paper to be only the beginning of extensive research that should endeavour to establish the existence of other women«s associations and to analyse their activities, i.e. the influence they had on the milieu in which they were active. This relates above all to the researching of women’s associations active after 1945.
