[Commlist] GAMAG-IAMCR Pre-Conference: Toward a New Gender Deal in Media and Communication

Registration is now open for the upcoming IAMCR Pre-Conference 'Towards 
a New Gender Deal in Media and Communications: education, research and 
advocacy in synergy’, promoted by the IAMCR Task Force for GAMAG and the 
Gender and Communication Section of IAMCR. The event will take place in 
hybrid format (online via Zoom and in person at the SciPo University in 
Lyon) on July 8th from 10.00 to 17.00 CET.

Our starting point are concerns with how old and new forms of unequal 
access, exclusion, discrimination, stereotyping and violence 
accompanying women and girls’ communication experiences are dealt with 
in emerging frameworks for the digital age, from the UN Global Digital 
Compact that will be presented at the UN Summit of the Future in 
2024, to the WSIS+20 review in 2025, but also in regional regulations 
and national digital strategies and policies for the media. Bringing 
into these debates and venues the collective wisdom that emerges from 
various feminist experiences is a global wager: over the past years 
partnerships have been launched and documents produced, yet 
fragmentation amongst initiatives and sectors (research, education, news 
media and advocacy) remains an issue, whereas advocacy for digital 
gender justice requires trans-national initiatives to join forces so as 
to gain a stronger voice. The IAMCR community contributes to fostering 
this participatory process by bringing together scholars, researchers, 
teachers, journalists, media professionals and their associations, as 
well NGOs and grassroots groups in a Pre-Conference conceived as an open 
space of dialogue. We are inviting members of different organizations, 
including IAMCR, GAMAG, UniTWIN, CIMA, FOJO, AGEMI IFJ, ITforChange, 
etc. to join us.

This event does not have a conventional CFP, because its aim is to 
facilitate the exchange amongst a plurality of socially engaged actors, 
from academia, civil society, professional worlds, in order to: foster 
respective knowledge (of ongoing activities, understanding, priorities); 
identify points of common interest and convergence; and possibly develop 
a Roadmap for networked actions towards a /New Gender Deal in Media and 
Communications./
