SUMMARY:CSW 2018: Safe Journalists\, Strong Democracies
DESCRIPTION:Full title: A Dent in Democracy: how on and offline attacks on women journalists are hurting us all  \nOrganisers: UNESCO with The Netherlands and Sweden \nDescription: The safety of women journalists has risen to become one of the pre-eminent issues for journalism in our digital era. During CSW\, UNESCO will highlight and promote action on the safety of women journalists through a side event supported by The Netherlands and Sweden. Safe Journalists\, Strong Democracies: How on and offline attacks on women journalists are hurting us all will discuss the many ways women journalists can be placed in vulnerable settings\, both in the workplace\, in the field and online\, leaving them open to all kinds of harassment\, intimidation and violence. Under the framework of the UN Plan of Action on the Safety of Journalists and Issue of Impunity\, panelists will share their first hand experiences of these threats and the consequences these actions have on the fundamental role that the press plays in strengthening democratic societies.

SUMMARY:CSW 2018: Focus on Section J - Taking stock\, looking forward (con interpretación)
DESCRIPTION:Organisers: World Association for Christian Communication (WACC)\, Global Media Monitoring Project (GMMP) network and\, GAMAG. \nDescription: The event provides a critical update of progress on gender and media resolutions from CSW 47 and Section J of the Beijing Platform for Action\, drawing from research evidence\, advocacy and practical experience. Progress in closing the gender inequality gap remains extremely slow: the needle towards parity has shifted by only 7 points in two decades; gender stereotypes remain firmly lodged in media contents; growing violence against women over digital platforms impedes women’s rights online. An interactive teaching and panel discussion approach will create knowledge about persistent gaps\, emerging issues and suggestions for intervention by civil society\, media professionals and industry bodies. \nExpected outcomes: Renewed commitment to lobby for adoption and/or implementation of gender policies for the ICT\, media and communication sectors\, critical for sustaining any gains on Sustainable Development Goals 5\, 16\, regional and national gender equality agreements. \nPresenters: \n\nMarceline Nyambala\, Association of Media Women in Kenya (AMWIK)\nSarah Macharia\, Global Media Monitoring Project – WACC\, Canada\nVilma Pena\, Observatorio GEMA\, Costa Rica\n\nPre-register here

SUMMARY:CSW 2018: Core issues of the Women and Media agenda: Violence against women journalists\, Gender mainstreaming in media and ICT policy and Violence against women in media and digital contents
DESCRIPTION:The Beijing Platform for Action (1995) and Section J\, “Women and Media”\, laid the foundation for a global agenda on gender and communication. Subsequently\, the 47th Session of the Commission on the Status of Women in 2003 adopted this as its core theme. This was followed by an increasing series of international initiatives that have shown the holistic nature of the agenda and the need to improve gender equality in and through the media – for example\, the Global Alliance on Media and Gender (GAMAG)\, launched by UNESCO and more than 500 organizations\, the UNESCO UNITWIN on Gender\, Media and ICTs\, the UN Women Global Compact ‘Step it up for gender equality in the media’\, the Council of Europe (CE) Recommendation CM/Rec(2013)1 of the Committee of Ministers to member States on gender equality and media adopted in July 2013\, the Recommendation CM/Rec(2017)9 of the Committee of Ministers to member States on gender equality in the audiovisual sector\, drafted by international experts from the CE member states and Mexico\, and adopted in September 2017\, and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal number 5 on gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls. \nThe impetus provided by feminist scholars\, activists and media workers has been significant. However\, these initiatives have not been always accompanied by the coordinated action of governments or by the firm commitment of media and ICT industries to end discrimination against women. As a consequence\, there has been little documented progress and\, in some areas\, even regression. Three areas are of particular concern: violence against women journalists\, lack of gender mainstreaming in media and ICT policy\, and violence against women in media and digital contents. \nEvidence shows there has been a severe increase of violence against women journalists\, both offline and online. This is happening in a number of countries\, but mostly in conflict and post-conflict countries where the human rights of women journalists have become more precarious. On the other hand\, despite the clear importance of policies to improve gender equality in media and telecommunication companies\, recommendations made by the above initiatives have been disregarded. Finally\, although ending violence against women and girls in media content is fundamental to the BPfA Strategic Objective J.1\, instead of decreasing\, sexism and misogyny in media have risen dramatically. In addition\, the new digital environment has enhanced some existing problems and presents new challenges that need to be addressed – such as sex trafficking in social networks\, easily accessible violent pornography\, online intimidation and silencing of women\, and more. \nAn urgent response from member states is needed\, in coordination with UN agencies\, universities\, NGOs\, regulatory bodies\, unions\, practitioners and media and ICT sectors. The purpose of this Side Event is to bring into CSW the debates around these three issues\, and a set of guidelines that could serve as a catalyst for an international coordinated action. \nKey message: As stated at the 47th Session of the Commission on the Status of Women Recommendation in 2003\, States should take a lead advocacy role with respect to media and ICT and gender equality. To mark the occasion of Women and Media as the Review Theme for CSW 2018\, the purpose of this Side Event promoted by the Mexican Government in partnership with the Global Alliance on Media and Gender (GAMAG)\, is to promote a review of the advances and challenges posed today by the recommendations made in 2003\, and the development of an action plan for the 21st century. The aim is to open up a multistakeholder debate around three of the central issues of the agenda – violence against women journalists\, gender mainstreaming in media and ICT policy and violence against women in media and digital contents – in order to devise an agreed international coordinated action to improve gender equality in and through the media and ICT. \nFormat and participation: The side event will bring together different stakeholders that will include Government representatives\, the UN system\, civil society\, scholars\, women’s and youth organizations and the media sector. The debate will start with a 10 minutes presentation by panelists followed by an interactive dialogue among multiple stakeholders. \nParticipants: \n\nLorena Cruz\, National Institute of Women President\nAimée Vega Montiel\, Global Alliance on Media and Gender (GAMAG) Chair / National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) Researcher\nGülser Corat\, UNESCO Director of the Division for Gender Equality\nOisika Chakrabarti\, UN Women\nLiri Kopaçi-Di Michele\, Council of Europe Head of the Equality Division\nMaria Edström\, Swedish Delegate to CSW / University of Gothenburg\nRosa Monteiro\, Protuguese Delegate to CSW/ Vice Minister of Citinzenship and Equality\n\nModerator: Carolyn Byerly\, Howard University Researcher \nLanguage: English / Spanish (simultaneous translation) \nThis event will be streamed at UN.tv \nDownload the concept note and speaker bios here
