Swedish Girls' School Committee of 1866 and women's rights reforms

The radical Girls' School Committee of 1866 recommended reforms that introduced the right for women to become doctors and attend university.

Following the grant of legal majority to unmarried women between 1858 and 1863, the committee's recommendations led to the introduction of the right for women to become doctors and to attend university. These reforms were argued as necessary for the state to provide women with the education and juridical status to handle their new rights.
