Kvindevalgretsforeningen

Kvindevalgretsforeningen (KVF), or the Women's Suffrage Association, was a Danish organization established by Line Luplau in 1889 specifically to promote women's suffrage.

The association not only organized meetings on voting rights but participated in electoral meetings, asking candidates how they felt about women's participation in provincial and national elections.

In addition to Luplau, Louise Nørlund and Johanne Meyer, there were also some prominent gentlemen in the audience, including Fredrik Bajer and Jens Christian Hostrup.

[1][3] Nevertheless, in 1891 Louise Nørlund, who had assisted Luplaus from the start, became president of KVF but retired in 1893 to return to family life.

[4] Its interests were then taken over by the Copenhagen chapter of the Danish Women's Society.
