About SWHF
The Singapore Women’s Hall of Fame is a celebration of the women who have made, or are making, an impact on our nation – the boundary breakers and record holders, the risk-takers and change makers, the role models and the standard setters.
They were the women who, at a time when social norms set limits on what a woman could do, pushed back the barriers and led the way for others. They were the pioneers, the pathfinders. They dared to dream and they turned their dreams into a new reality for the women of their time and the generations to come.
They are, today, the women who are shaping our society with their vision and passion, their enterprise and leadership, their talent and creativity, their humanity. They are the women who inspire us, and we want to recognise them and honour them.
THE INDUCTION CEREMONY
The Singapore Women’s Hall of Fame will be launched at a Gala Dinner on 14th March 2014 when the honorees, including those on the Wall of Fame, will be inducted.
Subsequently, the SWHF induction ceremony and dinner will be the highlight each year of SCWO’s International Women’s Day celebrations.
