Activists in Croatia are launching a new family card game celebrating the achievements of history’s unsung women.
Feminist non-profit VoxFeminae created the game Fierce Women to spread the word about female contributions to science, politics, human rights and culture. Each card features a portrait of a female pioneer, which were created by eight Croatian artists.
The team is running a crowdfunding campaign to produce the first 1000 decks and ship them across the globe.
For more information, or to buy a pack of cards for yourself, visit the group’s crowdfunding website here.
