n broadcasting, everybody should be on board. Broadcasters must make sure that women, children, people with disabilities and other vulnerable groups be present in all their programme content. A whole day was dedicated to gender
and diversity in the Media on 22 October in Bali. Participants at this high level forum – Broadcasting for All, Diversity and Inclusion in the Media commented on the progress achieved by many ABU members in this respect and what more could be done to include everybody in their broadcasting strategy.
In her welcoming remarks, the Indonesia Minister of Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection, Mrs Yohana Yambise said that women are playing a major role in the whole process of national development in her country. Her priority is to eliminate all forms of discrimination against women and to help end violence against both women and children. The minister pointed out that the media in Indonesia, especially RRI, is supporting the authorities in this venture.
For her part, Mrs Dwi Hernuningsih, Member of the Supervisory Board of RRI- Indonesia expressed her gratitude to the ABU for its endless support of women’s issues in the media. She added that RRI is always committed to encouraging diversity in the media.
