Singapore Women's Hall of Fame facts for kids
The Singapore Women's Hall of Fame is a special place that celebrates and remembers important women in Singapore's history. It's like a digital museum that honors women who have done amazing things. The Singapore Council of Women's Organisations (SCWO) created this Hall of Fame. It started in 2005 with a smaller group of nine women, and then grew into what it is today.
What Achievements Are Honored?
The Hall of Fame recognizes women for their achievements in many different areas. These include:
- adventurers and explorers
- advocacy and activism
- arts/culture/entertainment
- business and enterprise
- community/social work
- education
- environment/conservation
- health
- government
- law
- science/technology
- sports
- uniformed professions
How the Hall of Fame Started
The Singapore Women's Hall of Fame officially opened on March 14, 2014. At first, 108 women were chosen to be part of it. A special group of five people, led by Ambassador Tommy Koh, picked these first women from over 200 suggestions. It took them more than a year to decide!
President of Singapore Tony Tan and his wife, Mary Tan, were special guests at the launch event. They helped give out some of the awards. In 2015, on International Women's Day, eleven more women were added. The Speaker of Parliament, Halimah Yacob, presented these awards. That same month, The Fullerton Hotel Singapore hosted a photo exhibit showing the 108 women who were first inducted.
Anyone can suggest women for the Singapore Women's Hall of Fame. Women can even be added after they have passed away.
