About us

WEJ’s main goal is inspiring women to partake in journalism, as well as giving existing female journalists more opportunities in the field. By interviewing experts in the field, providing resources, and offering mentoring services for new members, WEJ will ensure that women are not underrepresented in media production.

Our mission is not only to increase the number of women in newsrooms, but to also contribute towards a future where women can easily speak up on issues affecting them.

“It’s absolutely essential that media starts to reflect the reality of women’s lives or we’re not going to change the reality of women’s lives”— Pat Mitchell, Media Executive, Producer, Curator of TEDWomen
