The Media Equality research group is built around the key aims of equal rights, equal access, equal representation.  The cross-University research group, and its aims, bring together existing impact and research across the University, from freedom and global rights for journalists, digital accessibility and audiovisual translation, youth and digital engagement, girls’ rights and PlanUK, decolonising festivals, archival visibility of women filmmakers, gender and sexuality based online violence, feminist approaches to eating disorders and media representation, offensive humour, media disinformation, (mis)representation, and so forth. The Group speaks to its member’s funded research projects, impact partnerships, local industry collaborations and festivals (NQFF, Green Film Festival). It also speaks to our leadership in enhancing diversity and social justice in journalism practice and policy, and global media monitoring.
