Media, Diversity and Change: Taking Stock
Date: 13-15 October 2010, Johannesburg, South Africa
Gender Links, MISA and GEMSA are extending the deadline for submission of the Gender and Media awards 2010 to 3 SEPTEMBER 2010 following the overwhelming response from some countries and a slower response from others. The deadline has been extended in the interest of fairness and to ensure there is equitable regional representation in all categories.
Due to time constraints the awards will no longer be held at national level but at the Fourth Gender and Media Summit and Awards in Johannesburg from the 13-15 October 2010. The awards include a cash prize and attendance at the summit.
To register online for the summit, please click here.
Entries may be submitted for good media practice and for good institutional practices on gender and HIV and AIDS. Eligible dates have been changed from 1 May 2006 to 15 July 2010 (as opposed to 1 April) to make allowance for coverage of Soccer 2010.
