The Gender and Media is a practical manual containing critical background on the challenges and opportunities around gender and media issues (representation, employment, ownership); contemporary activist and academic thinking on how gender issues are linked to media power and social change; advice on how to address gender issues in media institutions in order to transform organisational structures, policies and professional associations; and, finally, it includes information on the important contributions toward gender equality being made by activists working in alternative media and in gender and media organisations.
This handbook was published within the framework of “Gender, Conflict and the Media: Working Toward Egalitarianism and Peace”, a bi-communal project which was supported with a grant from the Bi-Communal Development Programme, funded by USAID and UNDP and executed by UNOPS.
