Introduction
General framework of the action

The intention of the Conference is to encourage the development of an information and communication network accessible to the women journalist and communicators of the Mediterranean and to the organizations that work with the women from the perspective of gender in the whole world..

The beginning of this network goes back to several Mediterranean meetings since 1992, but was in 2007 in the previous Conference of Barcelona that we gave it the temporary name of Mediterranean Network of Information and Communication of Gender (joined in turn with the International Network of Journalists with Vision of Gender created in Mexico in 2005).

They are days of exchange, of reflection, of debates and of getting in touch on questions of interest that affect to the women and therefore to the World.

The activities and actions that we suggest here are addressed to women journalist and communicators and to people linked to associations, NGO, groups of women and men of all the ages interested in the communication and the journalism from a vision of gender.

It is, then, a matter of deepening in a lot of contents and encouraging, this way, the analysis on the subjects that concern the women affecting the importance of a better treatment from the media and obtaining, through the Network, a greater diffusion.

Activities to develop

• Round tables
• Conferences
• Work groups

• Presentation of documentaries
• Workshops on Information and Communication Techniques
• Others




General goal
-Work in the construction of a solid communicative bridge that through informative and communicative instruments, as well as with good practices of vision of gender in the information and the communication it facilitates us a route for the equity of the Mediterranean women. To obtain their rights, to help transform our societies, and therefore for a bigger democracy in all our countries.
