The modules for the workshop have been prepared by senior gender specialists and educators, including Nasiruddin.
Ravita Sharma, the Vice President of Future Society, emphasised that the workshop seeks to address gender inequality in society through media channels.
UNICEF’s Communication Specialist, Ankush Singh, highlighted the importance of showcasing aspects related to women in both traditional and new media. Recognising that journalists have continuous contact with society on this subject, Singh emphasised the role of journalists in making children, parents, and teachers “gender-sensitive.”
