Networking for Change: FromJaipur to Shillong to New Delhi
Following the Bangalore workshop for women journalists in 2000, VOICES, in consultation with Ammu Joseph, facilitated regional workshops in Jaipur (April 2001) and Shillong (September 2001), and a National workshop at New Delhi (January 2002). The networking process took concrete shape at the Delhi workshop where over 100 women journalists from across the country came together to formulate a structure and articulate the objectives of the national network of women in journalism. The Network of Women in Media, India was formally launched at the workshop. (November 2000 – January 2002)
