During the years when the main transnational women's organizations were being established, women's activism generated a steady stream of "independent" congresses--conferences that that met across lands and languages and brought women together for a variety of purposes, not primarily to promote the founding of ongoing organizations.

This essay explores those "independent" congresses and the transnational culture that generated them.
