Wales<\/a> (NLW) to transcribe a 1923 peace petition, signed by over 390,000 women in Wales. The NLW also hosted an all-day volunteer Transcribathon. In total, 3,511 entries were transcribed.<\/p> Nia Dafydd, promotion and marketing manager at the NLW, said: \u201cThe Wales Women\u2019s Peace Petition has been such an important way for the National Library of Wales and our partners to open up discussions on the personal impacts of war, world peace and how the actions of our ancestors over a century ago can inspire change in the present. Having digitised the petition, transcribing allows us to make it much more accessible, and we are extremely grateful to all of our volunteer transcribers who have contributed their time, effort and enthusiasm towards this goal. Yesterday\u2019s Transcribathon was a joyous community event which also shows the value of coming together to make sense of our past. Thanks again to all who took part. We hope it will inspire more people to carry us forward to reach our goal.\u201d<\/p> <\/body><\/html>\n
