Elizabeth Dillenburg studies the history of girlhood, childhood, and religious missionary work within the British Empire, focusing on how ideas of race, class, gender, and Christian identity shaped colonial education and emigration programs for girls and children. Much of the work examines organizations like the Girls' Friendly Society and missionary education efforts in places such as South Africa, New Zealand, and Britain. The record also includes numerous book reviews on related topics in church history and the history of childhood.
Publication output has fluctuated over the last decade, with a dip around 2021-2023 followed by a notable increase in 2024, though recent 5-year average output remains modest at about 2 publications per year.
