Yalda Hakim, BBC World News international correspondent, will be the keynote speaker. We live in a culturally diverse country that promotes gender equality, and yet females and their views are woefully underrepresented and often misrepresented in the UK media. So much of our understanding of life, and our place in it, is filtered through the eyes of men. Women are consistently stereotyped and sexualised in the media. Less than 30% of roles in newspapers and television are held by women. GlobalGirl Media UK is committed to turning up the volume of girls' voices and changing the message, by developing girls' media literacy and giving them a platform. We promote freedom of expression while building selfesteem, leadership capacity and 21st century skills. This summer, GlobalGirl Media UK will train its first cohort of girls in digital media at South Thames College, Wandsworth. The new students, from diverse and underserved communities throughout London, will learn skills in reporting, videomaking and blogging. They will create content from their own, oftenoverlooked, perspectives. With the guidance of experienced TV and film professionals, new media mavericks and highprofile bloggers, UK GlobalGirls will become the first members of the London GlobalGirl Newsroom. They will upload their content to our own broadband network, GGMN TV, as well as other widereaching platforms, and benefit from the GlobalGirl Media Network worldwide. Putting girls behind the camera, GGM UK will change the narrative on our screens. Founded by Amie Williams in the US in 2010, GlobalGirl Media (GGM) develops the voice and media literacy of teenage girls and young women, ages 1422, in underrepresented communities by supporting them to create and share digital journalism, designed to spark community activism and social change. Through mentoring, training and access to a worldwide network of transmedia distribution partners, GGM harnesses the power of digital media to empower young women to bring their stories to the global media stage. GGM has trained 380 young women in four countries the US, Morocco, South Africa and Kosovo. Global Girls have produced over 380 videos and 400 blogs and partnered with over 40 multimedia companies.
