Abstract

Representation of women in media has been a noted gender equity issue globally for decades. Given the increasing encroachments into press freedom in Melanesia, female journalists and media workers face serious challenges. With this in mind, the Melanesian Media Freedom Forum (MMFF) hosted a special session focusing specifically on the issues affecting women in the media in Melanesia.  This article focuses on the discussions of female Melanesian journalists and the unique challenges they face in terms of representation in the media workforce, having their voices heard in the media, and the threats to their personal safety.  
用她自己的话来说:媒体中的美拉尼西亚女性
几十年来,女性在媒体中的代表性一直是全球关注的性别平等问题。鉴于美拉尼西亚新闻自由日益受到侵犯,女记者和媒体工作者面临严峻挑战。有鉴于此,美拉尼西亚媒体自由论坛(MMFF)举办了一场特别会议,专门讨论影响美拉尼西亚媒体女性的问题。本文重点讨论美拉尼西亚女记者,以及她们在媒体从业人员中所面临的独特挑战,她们的声音在媒体中被听到,以及她们的人身安全受到威胁。

期刊介绍: While one objective of Pacific Journalism Review is research into Pacific journalism theory and practice, the journal has also expanding its interest into new areas of research and inquiry that reflect the broader impact of contemporary media practice and education. A particular focus is on the cultural politics of the media, including the following issues: new media and social movements, indigenous cultures in the age of globalisation, the politics of tourism and development, the role of the media and the formation of national identity and the cultural influence of New Zealand as a branch of the global economy within the Pacific region. It also has a special interest in climate change, environmental and development studies in the media and communication and vernacular media in the region.
