Gerda Hellberg née Lundberg (1870–1937) was a prominent Swedish women's rights activist, contributing to Sweden's fight for women's suffrage. While studying in Uppsala, together with her female student friends, she founded Sweden's first student association for women. After moving to Karlstad in 1897, her home became a centre for meetings of women's rights activists. In 1903, she established the Karlstad branch of the National Association for Women's Suffrage (LKPR) and in 1912 was the first women to be elected to the city council. Following the introduction of women's suffrage, she chaired the newly established Karlstad branch of the Fredrika Bremer Association, the oldest existing women's rights organization in Sweden.
