Making Change: Nordic Examples of Working Towards Gender Equality in Media

http://www.nordicom.gu.se/sites/default/files/bilder/Mediefakta/Nyhetsbilder/makingchange_boken_liten.jpg

The Nordic region is well known for having gender equality as a hallmark of society. In the media sector, however, the male dominance persists in many areas, both in the industry itself and in the output. However, in the Nordic region there are also important examples of structural and individual steps towards gender equality in the media.

Making Change. Nordic Examples of Working Towards Gender Equality in the Media presents a collection of inspiring media practices in the Nordic region and a compilation of comparative data on gender equality in the Nordic media sector (film, journalism, advertising and computer games). Contributing authors are representatives from academia, civil society, activism and industry.
