I am not looking for only computer sources on
these two subjects; anything anyone knows about
either would help me very much. I am writing a
dissertation on informal/nonformal education in
women's volunteer associations. The two
problematic terms I've struggled with are "Bundu
societies" (Sierra Leone, etc.) and "Mahila
Samitis." The
latter is, I think, a word-for-word translation of
"Women's Institutes" (called the WI in England,
Wales, Canada, and Lesotho). Any knowledge of
on-line bibliographies would be treasured.

for any answers.

You might also try the Relief Society of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter
Day Saints (LDS) Mormons. They are the oldest organized Women's Group in the
U.S.
and they have been very active in women's education.
