Call for EoI from WEN Members
One of the key goals of the Women in Economics Network (WEN) is to elevate the voices and views of female economists in the media and public arena. In particular, we are focused on ensuring women from diverse backgrounds have opportunities to contribute to the public discourse. WEN is excited to collaborate with Future Women and ABC The Business to provide an opportunity for 20 WEN members to participate in a Masterclass in Communication and an ABC media workshop.
How do newsrooms work? What are journalists looking for? How can you enjoy greater confidence when working with the media?
WEN hosted an Academic Career Development Session at the Australian Gender Economics Workshop (AGEW2019). Presentation slides have been kindly provided by the senior mentors.
Business and Economy Editor from the The Conversation, Jenni Henderson, shares her insights and advice about writing for The Conversation and how to communicate economic research to everyday audiences through the media.
