Exploring career opportunities in the media industry – Friday 11 October 2024
Africa’s Girl Child Dialogues Webinar Conference, with a special focus on the Media And Publications Sector. This year’s Media And Publications Sector initiative is designed to unlock new opportunities for girls across a wide range of subjects like media practices, advertising, animation, digital marketing, journalism, radio, and television. Media is a sector that is currently very topical, and it has tended to be male-dominated.
Institutional barriers, such as biased hiring and promotion practices and a lack of mentorship opportunities; structural barriers, including pervasive societal norms and stereotypes about women’s roles; and individual barriers, such as caregiving responsibilities and financial constraints, significantly impede women’s access to media training and advancement within the profession.
BMH, as the headline sponsor, will provide the venue in Parkmore, Sandton. This venue can accommodate 120 people, plus it offers a stage for panellists, a podium, a large screen, a projector, and digital connectivity to run a webinar. The M&G will be responsible for the online audience, before, on the day, and after the seminar. It will facilitate the online webinar, which will broadcast live from BMH on the day and cover the entire programme, and cover the event with a summary in print.
