The Wollstonecraft Project aims to guide, facilitate, and support scholarly engagement in questions of sexual equality and freedom, as philosophically informed by realist metaphysics, virtue-based ethics, and a Wollstonecraftian understanding of rights grounded in responsibilities.

The Wollstonecraft Project provides university students and scholars at Harvard University and elsewhere with intellectual formation, professional support, and mentorship through a variety of programs and events.

The online journal Fairer Disputations was launched by the Wollstonecraft Project in 2023 and is now published by the Mercy Otis Warren Initiative for Women in Civil Life and Thought at ASU's School for Civic and Economic Thought and Leadership.
