AGEMI

Outil pour évaluer, mettre au défi et transformer les médias afin de promouvoir la diversité des genres

The AGEMI app has been developed as part of the AGEMI project which is an EU-funded project which aims to Advance Gender Equality in Media Industries. The app is a tool which can be used by anyone to Assess, Challenge and Transform the news media by promoting gender diversity. It has three elements: the 'assess' function comprises a series of questions which the user can ask of a news item in terms of its gender awareness/diversity/inclusion, after which the news item attracts a score. The user can then decide to write an email of complaint or congratulation to the editor of the news outlet, using a template which we have designed. Or the user may decide to write a 'letter to the editor' if the news outlet publishes such letters, again using a template we have designed. This is the 'challenge' aspect of the app. Lastly, the user can support the 'transformation' of news media by sending the AGEMI team a link to their own gender-aware journalism, which we will then upload to the AGEMI web platform under the ChanGE section.
