GENDER EQUALITY IN THE MEDIA
for media professionals, students, CSOs’ representatives
February-June 2021
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
Context
The promotion of women’s role in the Mediterranean region through the media is one of COPEAM’s priorities. Over the past years, COPEAM has been actively engaged in developing training, production and peering activities specifically devoted to this issue.
From 2017 to 2019, COPEAM was partner of AGEMI (Advancing Gender Equality in the Media Industry), an EU-funded project whose main output is an unprecedented on-line training platform and a set of openly accessible resources (www.agemi-eu.org).
In 2021, COPEAM and the North-South Centre[1] of the Council of Europe launch a new international training action about countering sexist stereotypes and promoting gender equality in the media in Europe and in the South-Mediterranean region.
A new participative training for media professionals, students and CSOs’ representatives

WHO: It is open to 1) journalists and media professionals; 2) media & journalism university students; 3) representatives from relevant civil society organizations (CSOs) active in the field of media and/or gender equality.
HOW: It is an innovative, integrated and multi-sector training course that combines virtual and in-person modules. It covers issues related to gender (in)equality in the information field in relation to both content production and career development.

Structure of the training
Due to the current travel restrictions related to the Covid-19, the training is structured as follows:
- an online moduleinvolving max 30 participants among journalists, students and CSOs’ representatives;
- a 3-day in-person workshop(organized in the framework of the N/S Centre’s MedUni event in Tunisia) involving only 10 journalists selected among the participants in the online training.
ONLINE MODULE
The participants are divided in teams and are accompanied by 3 mentors/facilitators.
The on-line module programme is designed and organized around the AGEMI e-learning resources on different aspects of the gender-media-equality relationship. The 3 mentors/facilitators are appointed to guide the participants in the use of these tools and contents.
The participants’ teams are involved in bi-weekly online sessions (2,5 hours each, including a 15’ break), integrating interactive learning practices and self-study activities with mentors’ facilitation.
At the end of the online module, the participants will be asked to perform some tasks directly related to the contents:
- identify a pertinent subject/story for a short multimedia report

PRACTICAL SESSION/WORKSHOP
The journalists having proposed the 10 best video-subjects will be selected by the advisory team for participating in a 3-day workshop[2] in Hammamet (Tunisia), in parallel with the MedUni 2021 event of the North/South Centre.
During this session, the beneficiaries will be introduced to cross-media production techniques and smart forms of journalism. Two media experts will coach the journalists during both the theoretical and practical phases aimed at producing news items starting from the subjects already developed and written before the selection.
