Collective bargaining agreements are key to achieving gender equality and inclusion in broadcasting, said Hanna Harvima, UNI Global Union\u2019s Policy Director for Media, Entertainment & Arts at the 12th Women with the Wave Forum in Seoul, South Korea on 29 October 2023. This annual event, which takes place in conjunction with the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union (ABU) general assembly, serves as a platform to promote diversity and inclusion in media organizations in the region.<\/p>\r\n

The Women with the Wave initiative itself was born in Seoul 12 years ago and has since travelled across Asia. The theme of this year’s forum, “Broadcasting for all: Diversity and inclusion in the media,” promoted action to better reflect and serve the needs of women and diverse audiences in the region.<\/p>\r\n

Speaking at the forum Harvima said:<\/p>\r\n

“Collective agreements are a crucial tool to improve working conditions and to promote gender issues at the workplace.\u201d<\/em> She added that without the active participation of women in the bargaining process and bargaining committees, the workplace challenges women face will remain unaddressed. She further stressed the need for a gender-responsive approach to collective bargaining to ensure that women’s concerns are effectively integrated into workplace policies.<\/p>\r\n

Highlighting the importance of the collaboration between UNI and ABU on gender equality and diversity, Harvima said: “Working together will lead to a working environment that is equal, diverse, safe, and that allows the same opportunities to all workers.”<\/em>\u00a0 The UNI\/ABU partnership represents an important step toward achieving a more equitable and inclusive media industry.<\/p>\r\n

In a significant milestone, all participants including UNI Media, Entertainment & Arts, adopted the Seoul Declaration<\/strong>. Initiated by the Korea Broadcasting Service (KBS), it signals the signatories\u2019 commitment to advancing diversity, inclusion, and gender equality in the media and broadcasting sector.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
