Africa Media Honours, organized by AFRIMASS Network, will on Wednesday, December 15, 2021, host this year’s edition to recognize outstanding women who are making a great impact in various fields of media communications in Africa.
According to organizers, the Africa Media Honours is an initiative set to work with partners and stakeholders to be a driving force to accelerate and transform the media, entertainment, and advertising industries to be more representative, progressive, and equal in their portrayal of women.
“The Africa Media Honours is an event that celebrates 30 outstanding women who are excelling and making a great impact in various fields of media communications in Africa. It focuses on the importance of diversity in industries and partnerships to support the creation of work that is truly progressive in its depiction and portrayal of women in advertising, media, and the entertainment industry, “the organisers stated.
They also added, “Our tagline, Celebrating Powerhouse Women in Media Communications, salutes and recognizes women who are making an impact in the media enterprise, from entertainment, content creation, advertising, media management, media marketing, media sales professions, media studies, freelancers, bloggers, traditional and digital practitioners, to corporate professionals and other forms of media practice.”
The organisers stated that they will be leveraging on four pillars to bring the event to life, which are; Creative Excellence: Creating work that encourages changes in Progressive Representation. Closing the Gap: Drive and accelerate diversity in our creative agencies and production partners. Progressive Media: Shaping the progressive media landscape of tomorrow through Media Investment Activism. Innovation & Design: Champion Inclusion & Diversity to Shape Market Leading Practices.
The event is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, December 15, 2021, at 7 pm at the Accra City Hotel–Accra, Ghana. It will be under the theme “Progressive Portrayal,” which seeks to explore deeper conversations.
