Gunhild Ziener (née Krakelsrud, 1868–1937) was a Norwegian socialist and politician. A pioneer in Norway's women's movement, she was the first president of the Norwegian Labour Party's Women's Federation when it was established in Christiania in 1901. Thereafter she fostered its extension throughout the country. She was also involved in launching the organization's magazine, Arbejderkvinnen (The Working Woman).[1][2]
