Winner APPJAG Jazz Media Award 2021 A place to explore, discuss and collaborate with women who work in Jazz
About us
Women in Jazz Media is an award winning not for profit organisation created to help support and create an equal, diverse, safe and healthy Jazz Industry. We are a team of writers, photographers, painters, musicians, presenters, journalists, producers, editors and more and are based in China, Spain, Germany, Scotland and England but have roots in France, Italy, Jamaica, Poland, Mauritius and beyond and collectively speak 8 languages. What do we do? Jazz represents freedom of expression and yet historically, women, people of colour, the LGBTQ community and many more have not been given equal opportunities in the Jazz industry. We explore a wide variety of initiatives to help increase the gender and diversity balance to ensure everyone has a voice. We look for platforms and where no platforms exist, we create ones to ensure everyone can be represented. We published our first entirely female led and managed magazine, platforming women on International Women’s Day March 2021. Actively seeking out existing female writers to support and promote their work we also search for new female writers and offer support through our mentoring scheme. Working with our partner publications and organisations, we explore the diversity of their content and offer support to increase representation where needed. Through our podcast series, we explore the careers of industry specialists, challenges and inspirations and discuss what actions we can all take to support and encourage a more diverse Jazz industry. A place: To promote and celebrate women who work in Jazz Media To encourage and support a more diverse Jazz community To create a healthy and supportive environment for women who work in Jazz media To encourage collaborative thinking and mutual support within the Jazz community.
