摘要：As noted by Tom¨¢skov¨¢ (this volume), ¡°the charge of
the renewed COSWA in the 1990s was to (1) make
women¡¯s issues much more visible, (2) make networking
among women (including regional networks) a
high priority, (3) explicitly address family and career problems
by focusing on the lack of childcare at meetings, and (4)
study the devaluation of women¡¯s professional and scholarly
work and their marginalization.¡± This charge has continued
through today. COSWA is a vehicle for the discussion and
dissemination of a broad range of professional, research,
and scholarly issues of concern to women archaeologists.
The committee strives to improve contact among women
archaeologists and broaden forums of discussion and action
on issues of interest to COSWA: women in archaeology and
archaeologists interested in gender studies. To facilitate
these goals, COSWA sponsors varied activities, including
workshops, forums, and sponsored sessions at the annual
meeting.
