The Singapore Women's Hall of Fame is a virtual hall of fame that honors and documents the lives of historically significant women in Singapore.

  • arts/culture/entertainment
  • business & enterprise
  • community/social work
  • education
  • environment/conservation
  • health

History

The hall of fame was launched on 14 March 2014, with 108 initial inductees. A five-person selection committee headed by Ambassador Tommy Koh selected the initial inductees from over 200 nominees; the committee took over a year to make its selections.[2] President of Singapore Tony Tan and his wife Mary Tan – a patron of the Singapore Council of Women's Organisations – were the guests of honor at the launch, and presented some of the awards to the recipients at the launch gala.[1][2][4][5] Eleven additional women were inducted in 2015, in a ceremony on International Women's Day. The Speaker of Parliament, Halimah Yacob, presented the awards to the honorees.[6] That month The Fullerton Hotel Singapore held a photo exhibition in partnership with the Singapore Women's Hall of Fame that highlighted 108 of the inductees.[7]

The Singapore Women's Hall of Fame accepts nominations from the public for future inductees,[1] and people can be inducted into the Singapore Women's Hall of Fame posthumously.[8]
