GlobalGirlMedia UK Details
GlobalGirl Media UK (GGM UK) empowers girls from underserved communities aged 14-22 in digital media skills to find their voices on the global media stage. Welcome! GlobalGirl Media motivates young women, their peers and members of their community, through capacity-building courses, to create content that helps to rebalance the imbalanced media landscape. We do this by running female-led training in 21st century digital media skills. We offer a safe forum for girls to explore their creativity and meet other girls from around the country and from diverse backgrounds. By partnering with women media professionals, our GlobalGirls gain practical sustainable expertise to ignite social change and disrupt the mainstream narrative.In August 2016, GlobalGirl Media UK (GGM UK) trained its first cohort of girls in digital media at South Thames College, Wandsworth. The students, from under-served communities throughout London and the South East, learnt skills in reporting, video-making and blogging. London GlobalGirls films have been widely feted. 'Stealing Intimacy' won a Gracies' 2017 Award - http://allwomeninmedia.org/gracies/ - and 'Brexit Unveiled' premiered at the 2017 London Feminist Film Festival.
