ICRW 2007 Annual Report

Gender for Journalists

The way men and women are portrayed in the media can often reinforce stereotyped expectations and traditional gender roles.

Trish Williams, a media consultant based in London, has developed a toolkit to help journalists, "present a clearer and more accurate picture of the contribution that both women and men make to the development and prosperity of their societies."

The toolkit is based on training workshops that Williams has conducted in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean and the Middle East.
