Francisca de Haan’s research interests center on transnational history, European social and political history and European women’s and gender history since 1800, comparative history of inter/transnational women’s movements, left-wing women’s political activism, women’s work, and women’s archives.

De Haan’s current research focuses on the entangled histories of the three largest international women’s organizations during the Cold War. In addition, she is preparing an edited collection, together with Myriam Everard, about the internationalist feminist and peace activist, Rosa Manus and the broader context she was working in during the interwar period.
De Haan has (co-)edited 11 volumes, including the Biographical Dictionary of Women’s Movements and Feminisms in Central, Eastern, and South Eastern Europe; Women’s Activism: Global Perspectives from the 1890s to the Present (forthcoming with Routledge); and six volumes of the international, peer-reviewed yearbook Aspasia, of which she is founding editor. Her articles have appeared in journals such as the Dutch-Belgium Tijdschrift voor Sociale Geschiedenis (Journal of Social History), Feministische Studien, the Journal of Women’s History, and the Women’s History Review.
She has received a number of prizes and fellowships, including a Study-Prize of the Praemium Erasmianum Foundation for her PhD (1992), and most recently the John E. Sayer Fellowship at the National Humanities Center in NC, USA, endowed by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation (2008-2009). From 2005 to 2010 she served as Vice-President of the International Federation for Research in Women’s History.
Her MA courses include Foundations in Gender Studies I: Histories, Theories, Futures; Women's Movements Worldwide; and Women and/in the United Nations.
