Summary

Christian missions in late 19th and early 20th century China used female education as both evangelization tools and social intervention instruments. A comparative study of Xiamen-Kulangsu and Shanghai international settlements revealed that while schools in Xiamen-Kulangsu provided refuge, literacy, and protection for abandoned girls, those in Shanghai integrated science, languages, and religious training, fostering public visibility for female students. The research, based on archival analysis, highlights a dual impact: the integration of these institutions into colonial agendas alongside their role in expanding educational access and mobility opportunities for young women.
