Spain: press agency specialized in gender equality

Posted by Jean Yves Chainon on June 28, 2007 at 12:21 PM
A group of women journalists have launched Ameco Press, the first Spanish press agency specialized in gender equality issues. Ameco will cover all general news “topics that are relevant to women.”

 
“It is necessary information but it is invisible in the eyes of other media,” said Cristina P. Fraga, director of the agency. The agency distributes free written and audio content to Spanish news groups (and plans to launch into video content starting next year).

Ameco Press counts eight journalists in Madrid and about thirty contributors in Spain. All of them are women but Fraga is open to the idea of male staffers.

She also says that coverage will “avoid any sexist interpretation.”
