Women in Media is a nationwide initiative for women working in all facets of the media including journalism, media creation, publishing, public relations, corporate affairs, and digital marketing such as promotion, placement, optimisation, and analysis.
We are a not-for-profit industry body developed by and for women in media across Australia. We exist to help women in media connect, learn and contribute.
Women in Media thrives as a result of the tremendous work of volunteers who run our state committees, act as mentors, and give their time as guest speakers.

To support women in media by:
* creating opportunities and connections
