Theodora Lang

Theodora Wilhelmine Linderstrøm (3 May 1855 – 16 December 1935) was a Danish pioneer in women's education.

In 1891–1892, she was given the task by a government minister to lobby for the foundation of a governmental women teacher's training seminary, though she was not successful.

[1] In 1893, she founded the Danish Girls' School Association (Den danske Pigeskole) which held regular debates over issues of women's education; this organized the first exchange between teachers and students in the Nordic countries.

In 1906 she was the co-founder of the Girls' School Help and Pension Fund (Pigeskolernes Hjælpe og Pensionskasse).

[5] In 1927, her niece Karen Linderstrøm-Lang (1894–1964) became her successor as seminary leader and principal of the upper secondary school.
