Sat Aug 12 08:21:43 GMT 2017





Dear colleague - we are pleased to introduce you to a new and exciting project whose success will rely, to a considerable extent, on your active support and contribution.

AGEMI is an EU-funded project which aims to advance gender equality in the media by sharing good practices, developing meaningful training activities and fostering relationships between media and journalism students and media practitioners, thus bridging the transition from education to employment.

The project teamare currently designing a web platform that we hope will become the ‘go-to’ resource for individuals and organizations interested in promoting gender equality and will include a */Resources Bank of Good Practices/*and other useful materials.

We hope you agree that sharing positive and practical examples of actions among and between educators and media professionals, which have responded to the challenge of gender in/equality is crucial for transforming the media landscape and enables us to benefit from the ideas and actions of others. By using this collaborative approach, we believe that the project and every organization and individual who participates in it, contributes to a */globally meaningful movement for change/*.

We are therefore reaching out to invite you to collaborate with us and make this project jump. */How you can get involved?/*

*/Can you suggest a good practice which we can include in the Resources Bank?/*

If you are aware of any action or activity which has been developed or is ongoing, which you consider is a good practice example and worth sharing, we want to hear from you. Good practices may take different forms (for example, training, advocacy, website, monitoring), involve different stakeholders, be implemented across different media and take place (or have taken place) in different geo-cultural contexts.

*/If you know of such a good practice (or more than one!) and want to tell us about it, please use the online/**//**/AGEMI Google Form./* <https://goo.gl/rnZxDC>

Details of the activity/action you contributewill be reviewed by the AGEMI team and included in the project’s Resources Bank and the name of the person and/or organization delivering the good practice will be included in the list of contributions which will appear on the AGEMI website.

The project also provides one-week internship for students, so*/if you know of a media-focused organisation which you believe would be willing to provide an internship, please let us know./*

*/Lastly, if you know any media practitioners, media justice advocates, women’s organizations or researchers who would be interested in talking about initiatives for advancing gender equality in the media, please let us know./*Their stories are important to hear and will make the project lively and dynamic.

We look forward to hearing from you and receiving your completed form.

For further information or if you have any questions about the project or completing the google form, please contact us at:
