[ecrea] invitation to contribute to new Resources Bank on Advancing Gender Equality in Media Industries

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:
