SUMMARY:Beyond the Gender Beat
DESCRIPTION:A report by The Media Rumble and UN Women in early 2019 analyse
 d India’s leading newspapers\, magazines\, TV channels\, and news websit
 es. It found that in a six-month period in 2018\, only 8% of content—new
 s reports\, features\, opinion pieces\, and primetime debates—focused on
  gender issues.\n\nThis is alarmingly low. A sustained focus on understand
 ing the issues\, interests and concerns of women and gender minorities is 
 crucial to undoing the patriarchal systems that bind us.  Non-sexist repr
 esentation that moves beyond outrage cycles and victim shaming is key to r
 eshaping narratives. This requires both a shift in content and the structu
 re of journalistic institutions to address gender issues beyond sensationa
 lism. Sensitive storytelling should centre the voices of women and gender 
 minorities\, critically explore widening gender disparities\, and adopt ne
 w\, compassionate ways to present these stories.\n\nJoin us for a panel di
 scussion featuring Priti David from PARI (People’s Archive of Rural Indi
 a)\, Laxmi Murthy from Hri Southasian\, Priyanka Tupe from Behan Box\, and
  Shabani Hassanwalia from The Third Eye. Each of these institutions\, in t
 heir distinct ways\, have employed a people-first approach in storytelling
 \; allowing to build sensitivity and instances for continued learning arou
 nd gender.\n\nThis panel discussion is conceptualised under our exhibition
  VISIBLE/INVISIBLE: Representation of Women in Art through the MAP Collect
 ion.
